B

Correct Answer

A function f: {0,1}ⁿ → {0,1} expressible in DNF (sum of products) or CNF (product of sums) normal form

Explanation

DNF (disjunctive normal form): OR of AND-clauses (minterms). CNF (conjunctive): AND of OR-clauses (maxterms). Any Boolean function has unique canonical DNF and CNF. Used in SAT solvers and logic synthesis.
