Boolean algebra and Karnaugh maps. These are things used in electronics to reduce complicated conditions down to simple ones for the sake of wiring through logic circuits. It's tricky to explain. Like say you were planning a party and you could have only three guests. There are various combinations you could have.

1. Autumn OR Ellie is there, AND Destini is there
2. Autumn AND Ellie are there, OR Destini AND Brooklyn are there.
3. Autumn is NOT there AND Ellie is there OR Destini OR Brooklyn are there.

Kinda like that. You could, with Boolean algebra, cut that down to a single condition. I don't know what that condition is though, since I haven't used Boolean algebra in 24 years.

Karnaugh maps are a way of doing Boolean algebra with grids instead.
