Wieland\\eMail: \texttt{awwieland@gmx.de}} \date{January 7th, 2002} \maketitle \section{Abstract} Karnaugh maps and Veitch charts\footnote{In previous releases of this document I referred to Karnaugh maps as Karnaugh-Veitch-Maps. This was definitely not correct. Thanks to F.~M.~Brown for pointing this error out to me.} are used to simplify logic equations. The drawing of them used to be a boring, annoying and error-prone task. With the included macros this is no longer a problem. They can typeset Karnaugh maps and Veitch charts with up to ten variables, which is more than you might likely need. You only have to provide a list of variable identifiers plus the function table of your logic function(s). The macros also allow to mark the simplifications of your logic function directly within a Karnaugh map or Veitch chart. \section{Introduction} Karnaugh maps and Veitch charts are used to simplify logic equations. They are map representations of logic functions, and in that they are equivalent. The difference between the two kinds of diagrams is the way in which the variables of the functions are located within the diagrams: ``The Karnaugh map \ldots{} displays a function's discriminants according to the reflected binary (Gray) code. The Veitch chart \ldots{} displays the discriminants in natural binary order.'' (F.~M.~Brown) However, the drawing of either kind of them used to be a boring, annoying and error-prone task. Since I had to typeset a 50+~page collection of exercises for a basic computer-science lecture with plenty of Karnaugh maps in it, I decided to write some macros that would do this task for me. Let us start first with an introduction on how to use these Macros: The first thing you have to do is to put the macro file \verb|kvmacros.tex| into a directory where \TeX{} will find it, i.e. you have to put it into a directory where your \texttt{TEXINPUTS} environment variable points to. You can then load them by typing \verb|\input kvmacros| somewhere in the preamble of your document. Suppose now you have a logic function~$f$ with the following function table: \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{lr} \begin{tabular}[t]{r|cccc|c} Index&$a$&$b$&$c$&$d$&$f$\\ \hline 0&0&0&0&0&1\\ 1&0&0&0&1&1\\ 2&0&0&1&0&1\\ 3&0&0&1&1&0\\ 4&0&1&0&0&0\\ 5&0&1&0&1&1\\ 6&0&1&1&0&1\\ 7&0&1&1&1&0\\ \end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}[t]{r|cccc|c} Index&$a$&$b$&$c$&$d$&$f$\\ \hline 8&1&0&0&0&0\\ 9&1&0&0&1&1\\ 10&1&0&1&0&1\\ 11&1&0&1&1&0\\ 12&1&1&0&0&0\\ 13&1&1&0&1&1\\ 14&1&1&1&0&1\\ 15&1&1&1&1&0\\ \end{tabular} \end{tabular} \end{center} This logic function can easily be put into a Karnaugh map by using the \verb|\karnaughmap|-macro\footnote{Users of older versions of the macro package will notice that the name has changed. Below you will find a discussion of the changes between versions.}. It has five parameters: The number of variables in the map, an identifier for the function, a list of variable identifiers for the variables, and the list of values of $f$ for each line in the function table. The variable identifiers in the third parameter are ordered from highest to lowest significance (the same way as in the function table, with $a$ having a significance of $2^3=8$ and $d$ having a significance of $2^0=1$). The list of values of $f$ was read from lowest to highest index. The fifth parameter remains empty in this example, it will be discussed below: \begin{verbatim} \karnaughmap{4}{f(a,b,c,d):}{abcd}{1110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} This produces the following Karnaugh map, where the indices in the lower left corner of each box correspond to the indices in the function table:\footnote{The indices can easily be calculated from the variable values in the function table, i.e. line 11: the index equals $a\cdot 2^3 + b\cdot 2^2 + c \cdot 2^1 + d \cdot 2^0=1\cdot 8 + 0\cdot 4 + 1 \cdot 2 + 1 \cdot 1=11$.} \begin{center} \karnaughmap{4}{f(a,b,c,d):}{abcd}{1110011001100110}{} \end{center} The macros work similar for Veitch charts: \begin{verbatim} \veitchchart{4}{f(a,b,c,d):}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} \begin{center} \veitchchart{4}{f(a,b,c,d):}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{center} Notice the difference in the variable location in the diagrams. In my opinion Karnaugh maps are much easier to use if you need to simplify a logic function; therefore Veitch charts will not be discussed any further in this document. Except otherwise noticed, the macros' syntax and functionality are exactly the same for Karnaugh maps and Veitch charts. The macros that read the variable list and the list of logic values (i.e. parameters \#3 and \#4) work recursively. Therefore, you have to take special care to supply the correct number of tokens to print: If you supply a list of variable identifiers or a list of logic values that contains fewer elements than needed the macros will cause error messages similar to the following: \begin{verbatim} ! Argument of \kvgetonechar has an extra }. \par l.201 }{} ? \end{verbatim} On the contrary, if any of the two lists is longer than needed, \emph{you will not be notified!} Moreover, each entry has to be one character long, otherwise --- like a variable identifier enclosed in \$s --- you have to put it into braces: \begin{verbatim} \karnaughmap{4}{$f(a,b,c,d):$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}}{0110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} This produces the following Karnaugh map: \begin{center} \karnaughmap{4}{$f(a,b,c,d):$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}}{0110011001100110}{} \end{center} \section{Marking simplifications} The already mentioned fifth parameter can be used if you want to draw something inside the Karnaugh map. For example this is useful if you want to show how you simplified a logic function: \begin{verbatim} \karnaughmap{4}{$f(a,b,c,d):$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}}% {0110011001100110}% {% \put(0,2){\oval(1.9,1.9)[r]} \put(4,2){\oval(1.9,1.9)[l]} \put(2,0){\oval(1.9,1.9)[t]} \put(2,4){\oval(1.9,1.9)[b]} } \end{verbatim} The corresponding Karnaugh map looks like this: \begin{center} \karnaughmap{4}{$f(a,b,c,d):$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}}% {0110011001100110}% {% \put(0,2){\oval(1.9,1.9)[r]} \put(4,2){\oval(1.9,1.9)[l]} \put(2,0){\oval(1.9,1.9)[t]} \put(2,4){\oval(1.9,1.9)[b]} } \end{center} You can use any of \LaTeX's graphics macros for this purpose. The Karnaugh map has its pivot point at the lower left point\footnote{This is not exactly true, but sufficient if you do not want to modify the macros.} and a unitlength that is equal to the length of a single box within the Karnaugh map. Sometimes you may find that the \verb|\oval|s that you want to draw inside a Karnaugh map are slightly shifted to the right. This occurs if you use the \verb|eepic|-Package in your document. In this case, make a copy of the \verb|eepic.sty| file, rename it to something like \verb|myeepic.sty| and comment out the definition of the \verb|\oval|-macro in your local copy. If you put this new \verb|myeepic.sty| file somewhere into your \TeX's search path so that \TeX{} can find it and you load it properly with e.g. \verb|\usepackage{myeepic}|, you shouldn't experience any more trouble. \section{Other features} There are some more features that you can use. Possibly the most important is that you can change the size of the diagrams by changing the size of the boxes within the map, simply by typing: \begin{verbatim} \kvunitlength=15mm \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} This results in the following Karnaugh map. The setting of the \verb|\kvunitlength| remains active until you change it again;\footnote{Or, of course, until you leave the group in which you redefined the value. This applies to all changeable parameters and macro definitions in this section!} the default \verb|\kvunitlength| is 8\,mm: \begin{center} \kvunitlength=15mm \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{center} Another feature is that you can switch off the indices inside the map by typing: \begin{verbatim} \kvnoindex \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} \begin{center} \kvunitlength=8mm \kvnoindex \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{center} This setting also remains active until you switch indexing on again using the \verb|\kvindex|-macro: \begin{verbatim} \kvindex \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} \begin{center} \kvindex \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{center} Usually, the font size of the map's contents and indices should be suitable (the defaults are \verb|\tiny| for \verb|\kvindexsize| and \verb|\normalsize| for \verb|\kvcontentsize|). If you want to change them, you can do this by redefining the \verb|\kvcontentsize|- and \verb|\kvindexsize|-macros (Preferably, you should do this in the preamble of your document): \begin{verbatim} \renewcommand\kvindexsize{\footnotesize} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} \begin{center} \renewcommand\kvindexsize{\footnotesize} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{center} In the same way you can also change the font family (Although I doubt that this is sensible): \begin{verbatim} \renewcommand\kvindexsize{\footnotesize\it} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{verbatim} \begin{center} \renewcommand\kvindexsize{\footnotesize\it} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{0110011001100110}{} \end{center} These macros are named \verb|\kvfoo|, because they work both for Karnaugh maps and Veitch charts. \section{If you use an older version of the macros\ldots} \ldots{} you will certainly have noticed a number of changes. The most important one is that I have changed the name of the macro that draws Karnaugh maps from \verb|\kvmap| to \verb|\karnaughmap|. I suggest that you use the new name in documents that you newly create. However, I introduced an alias so that the old macro name still works: \begin{verbatim} \def\kvmap{\karnaughmap} \end{verbatim} Also, in some older versions tokens in the variable list or function table that were longer than one character had to be enclosed in \emph{double} braces (If you have used any of these versions you will certainly remember this annoying feature). This is no longer necessary --- however, it does no harm. If you need to know more about the exact changes, please consult the revision history in \verb|kvmacros.tex|. \section{Final remarks} This is all you need to know about the usage of my macros. I have tried them out and I haven't yet found any serious bugs, but I'm pretty sure there are plenty. In this case, or if you have comments or suggestions, please send me an eMail. Anyway, I would very much appreciate if you would notify me when you use my macros; I would like to know if they are of any use to somebody. The maximum size map I could produce was a Karnaugh map with 10~variables; with bigger maps I only exceeded \TeX's main memory. This is due to the macros' recursive algorithm. Quite likely you will exceed \TeX's capacity with even smaller maps if they occur in large documents, but I think no~one in his right mind will ever use Karnaugh maps of more than 6\,variables, so I didn't care about this problem. \section{More examples} Below I have given some more examples of Karnaugh maps produced with my macros: \begin{verbatim} \karnaughmap{1}{}{a}{01}{} \karnaughmap{2}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}}{0110}{} \karnaughmap{3}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}}{01100110}{} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}}{0110011001100110}{} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{abcdefghijklmnop}{} \karnaughmap{5}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}{$e$}}% {0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef}{} \karnaughmap{6}{$f_i^t:$}{abcdef}% {0123456789{10}{11}{12}{13}{14}{15}% {16}{17}{18}{19}{20}{21}{22}{23}% {24}{25}{26}{27}{28}{29}{30}{31}% {32}{33}{34}{35}{36}{37}{38}{39}% {40}{41}{42}{43}{44}{45}{46}{47}% {48}{49}{50}{51}{52}{53}{54}{55}% {56}{57}{58}{59}{60}{61}{62}{63}}{}% \kvunitlength=6mm \kvnoindex \karnaughmap{8}{$q_2^4:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}{$e$}% {$f$}{$g$}{$h$}}{% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% }{} \kvunitlength=8mm \kvindex \end{verbatim} \begin{flushleft} \karnaughmap{1}{}{a}{01}{} \karnaughmap{2}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}}{0110}{} \karnaughmap{3}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}}{01100110}{} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}}{0110011001100110}{} \karnaughmap{4}{$f:$}{abcd}{abcdefghijklmnop}{} \karnaughmap{5}{$f:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}{$e$}}% {0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef}{} \karnaughmap{6}{$f_i^t:$}{abcdef}% {0123456789{10}{11}{12}{13}{14}{15}% {16}{17}{18}{19}{20}{21}{22}{23}% {24}{25}{26}{27}{28}{29}{30}{31}% {32}{33}{34}{35}{36}{37}{38}{39}% {40}{41}{42}{43}{44}{45}{46}{47}% {48}{49}{50}{51}{52}{53}{54}{55}% {56}{57}{58}{59}{60}{61}{62}{63}}{}% \kvunitlength=6mm \kvnoindex \karnaughmap{8}{$q_2^4:$}{{$a$}{$b$}{$c$}{$d$}{$e$}% {$f$}{$g$}{$h$}}{% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% 0011001111001100% }{} \kvunitlength=8mm \kvindex \end{flushleft} \section{Sourcecode} Here now you will find the current sourcecode of my macros.

I also included the documentation in an additional %% Postscript-file. %% %% September 23rd, 1998: Fixed the problem with double braces by introducing %% the \compdummy and \ende macros in the \ifx-comparisons (see below): %% The parameters that are longer than one character do not have to be %% enclosed in double braces any longer --- single braces are %% sufficient.
