15.21 (b) Many state assignments are not equivalent to the
straight binary assignment, for example:
15.20 (a) Invert all three columns of assignment (iv), and
then swap the first and last columns. Then (iii)
and (iv) are the same, therefore, Assignment (iii) ≡
Assignment (iv).
15.20 (b) Equivalent assignments to each column having 000
as the starting state. Invert any column with 1 in
the first row.
(ii) – (c’
2)iii – c’
1iv – c’
