## Ledger state

The current ledger marks this instrument verified clean within the source-bound verification corpus.

**Area**: Computing & Information

**Tranche**: tranche-6

**Evidence ID**: t6-042

**Ledger rows**: 1

No ledger note is attached.

## Review findings

The Boolean gate formulas and DAG evaluation method are standard and correct. Verdict is NEEDS_REVIEW because gate arity, malformed-network handling, and deterministic trace ordering are not explicitly specified, not because the stated logic formulas are incorrect.

### Formula and scope findings

No additional record

### Unit assumptions

- Inputs and outputs are Boolean values: 0=false and 1=true; there are no physical units.

- AND, OR, NAND, and NOR are assumed to be 2-input gates in these vectors.

- XOR is assumed to be a 2-input exclusive OR: 1 exactly when its two inputs differ.

- NOT is assumed to be a single-input inverter.

- Evaluation is purely combinational: the gate network must be a directed acyclic graph, and propagation is performed in topological order.

## Boundary hardening

**BREAK_CLAIMED** · SELF_FLAGGED

The specification does not define validation for non-Boolean input states or the polarity convention for 0 and 1. An input such as 2 must be rejected rather than evaluated, and active-high versus active-low interpretation can change displayed output labels.

## Errata and corrections

No applied erratum is attached to this unique-name record.
