== Question about the example ==
 
OK, I'm an undergrad in Computer Science, so I'm not qualified to actually "fix" this article. But, I do have a concern. I sat down and worked through the example given, and I'm not clear about one point. In step 1, the final "combination" chart arrives at 4 prime implicants. One of these is m(8,10,12,14)*. According to the chart, this represents the boolean <math>AD'</math>. Yet this product is missing from the final solution. I double-checked, and the solution is correct, but what happened to the <math>AD'</math> term? At what step in the process was it rejected as redundant?
