Here are the most basic Logic Operations:

 

AND (\wedge): The intersection of two statements, A \wedge B is TRUE when A is TRUE and B is TRUE

 

Example: "It's dark blue" = "It is dark \wedge It is blue"

 

OR (\vee): The union of two statements, A \vee B is TRUE when A is TRUE or B is TRUE, or both

 

Example: "Xittenn drinks tea or coffee" = "Xittenn drinks tea \vee Xittenn drinks coffee"

 

NOT (¬): The negation operator, ¬A is TRUE when A is FALSE

 

Example: "I am not a liar" = "¬ I am liar"

 

Implication (\longrightarrow): One statement enforce another, A \rightarrow B

 

Example: "A locked door cannot be opened" = "The door is locked \longrightarrow The door cannot be opened"

 

Equivalence (\Leftrightarrow): Two statements are equivalent, A \Leftrightarrow B

 

Example: "Jon and Monica go out together, or don't" = "Jon goes out \Leftrightarrow Monica goes out"

 

Here is a truth table for more operations, which are easy to understand with the Venn diagram:
