In this tutorial you will learn basic circuit-building techniques. We will build and test a simple 3-input circuit to compute O = ~A + (B C). We will use 3 simple switches and one simple bulb. We will then save the project and export it to XML, then reload and import it. Finally, we will use the circuit as a subcircuit.
Refer to Adding, Selecting, Copying, Moving, Deleting and Connecting Components to learn how to place components on the circuit board and to connect them.

Now click switch C to test the circuit.
Try different switching patterns and observe the result.
