Is there a better way to write the below?
if ((A && B) || (A && B && C)) { ... }
which means I cannot do
if ((A && B) || C) { ... }
>Solution :
You can use logical rules to simplify the statement:
(A && B) || (A && B && C)
Factorizing the common part (A && B) you get:
(A && B) && (true || C)
And of course true || C is always true so that entire group becomes a "don’t care" and can be discarded. That leaves just:
A && B
There are other ways to arrive at the same result. In this case, even writing out a basic truth table would have made it pretty obvious.
For more complicated expressions, the use of a Karnaugh Map can be helpful.
