Nand (⍲
) is a dyadic scalar boolean function which tests if either argument is not true: it returns 0 if both are 1 and 1 if at least one is 0. It represents the Sheffer stroke or alternative denial in Boolean logic. Nand is the boolean negation ~
of the And function ∧
, and so its glyph is composed from those. However, fonts vary in how they compose them; some overlaying the glyphs (∧̴), and some stacking them (∧̃).
Examples
