Boolean connectives (Boolean operators)

Named after mathematician and logician George Boole, these are the three fundamental truth functional building blocks of compound sentences. They are negation, conjunction, and disjunction. The ordinary language words for each are “not,” “and,” and “or.” The logical symbols for each are commonly as follows:
Negation: ¬ and ~
Conjunction: ^, •, and &
Disjunction: ∨
