Procedure/Method:
1) Organized the rails and connected the power to the chip.
2) Connected pin14 to Vcc and Pin7 to ground.
3) Then connected the LED to pin3 and used a small resistor to ground to recognize the one
output.
4) Bridged the resistor ensuring that the longer leg was connected to pin3 and the shorter leg
was connected to ground.
5) Connecting both inputs to be high, I connected both pins 1&2 to Vcc set to 5Volts.
6) Turned on the power supply.

Symbols Representing Truth Table: 0 and 1

Relevant Theory: Logic Gates are the building blocks used to create digital circuits. The
symbol ‘0’ represents false and ‘1’ represents true. An AND gate is a logic gate that has a HIGH
output result only if all the inputs to the AND gate are HIGH, if they are not then the output
result is low. An OR gate is a logic gate that has a HIGH output if one or both the inputs to the
gate are HIGH, if no input is high then the output is LOW.
