Karnaugh maps lesson

reference

• For this lesson, I started doing it and I did not understand most of it before looking into videos on YouTube about grey code and how to draw these maps. The explanation in this lab is not that clear. It does not show any clear example, details, and the 2d maps being written instead of being in a table made it much more confusing for me while reading it.
• I suggest we can start this lab with some overview, remove the current example, and add a more clear example such as clear tables or a video that explains everything. An example of a helpful video can be found here
• In addition to that, the questions are only about going from truth functions to constructing the tables. I suggest we add some questions after that providing the tables and asking us to find the function. Because in this way we can learn how to group the ones in the table and come out with the truth function.

• I think adding more examples that go through step by step would be useful, right after the explanation of what Karnaugh maps are and how they are useful
• The demonstration provided in the Karnaugh maps was confusing, as the syntax was somewhat messed up. I think a video or better format of the example would greatly increase clarity.
• Need better examples with better visibility that gives the reader time to figure out what the solution is, maybe linking videos would be beneficial?
• Moving the karnaugh maps to before the lab at least would also improve the ability of the lab itself, as I think that this should be one of the first things that is gone over, and in more depth with more practice questions and relating it back to logic circuits
