The nth Dedekind number M(n) is the number of monotone Boolean functions of n variables. The 9th Dedekind number was recently computed to be M(9) = 286386577668298411128469151667598498812366. The previous post defines monotone Boolean functions and explicitly enumerates the functions for one, two, or three variables. As that post demonstrates, M(1) = 3, M(2) = 6, […] The post The 10th Dedekind number first appeared on John D. Cook....
