@deffn {Function} logic_simp (@var{expr})

Returns a simplified version of logical expression @var{expr}.

Examples:

@example
(%i1) load ("logic.mac")$
@group
(%i2) logic_simp (a or (b or false or (a or b)));
(%o2)                               a or b
@end group
@group
(%i3) logic_simp (b eq a eq false eq true);
(%o3)                           eq a eq b false
@end group
@group
(%i4) logic_simp ((a xor true) xor b xor true);
(%o4)                               a xor b
@end group
@end example

The function applies only basic simplification rules without introducing new
functions.

N.B. It should be merged somehow with the basic Maxima simplifier.
@end deffn


@deffn {Function} characteristic_vector (@var{expr}, @var{var_1}, ..., @var{var_n})

Returns a list of size @math{2^n} with all possible values of @var{expr}.

For example, @code{characteristic_vector (f(x,y,z), x, y, z)} is equivalent to
list

@example
@group
[
  f (false, false, false),
  f (false, false,  true),
  f (false,  true, false),
  f (false,  true,  true),
  f ( true, false, false),
  f ( true, false,  true),
  f ( true,  true, false),
  f ( true,  true,  true)
]
@end group
@end example

If @code{@var{var_1}, ..., @var{var_n}} is omitted, it is assumed that

@example
[@var{var_1}, ..., @var{var_n}] = sort(listofvars(@var{expr}))
@end example

Examples:

@example
