I have no idea what this is supposed to be for. The article was not written clearly at all. Maybe if it could be cleaned up a bit, it'd could be put back --Jzcool

Revision 4 seems to be more readable: we should have some stuff on its uses, such as reliable systems engineering -- The Anome

The Article states that
"The value of the operation is false when n/2 or fewer arguments are false, and true otherwise."
Shouldn't this be either
"is false when n/2 or fewer arguments are true, and true otherwise."
or
"is false when n/2 or more arguments are false, and true otherwise."

Is it true that the majority function can be evaluated by a boolean circuit of size O(n) with AND and OR gates ? If so, I think it should be written in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Staskikotx (talk • contribs) 13:35, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
