Can you construct a truth table for a trinary logic system half adder?
Probably? I don't feel like doing homework rn, though, and what would be the point?
Some programs might have reasons to add an additional truth value, (for example, most databases include "NULL") but trinary would be a terrible choice for hardware. The tolerances are just much more forgiving when you're detecting the presence/absence of a charge than trying to measure multiple distinct states.
