Question
The truth table that defines \(\vee\), the inclusive or, indicates that the compound statement is true if one or both of its component statements are true. The symbol for the exclusive or is \(\underline{\vee}\). The exclusive or means either p or q, but not both. Use this meaning to construct the truth table that defines \(p \underline{\vee} q\).
