_*In this video, the Karnaugh Map (K-map) Rules for minimising the Boolean expression has been discussed.*_

*K-map Rules:*
_1. All the 1s in the map should be covered_
_2. Adjacent cells who are differing by only one variable can be Grouped_
_3. Group must be in the power of 2 (1, 2, 4, 8, 16 etc.)_
_4. Grouping is done in square of rectangular shape_
_5. Overlapping of group is allowed_
_6. Wrap around in K-map_
_7. Groups may be Horizontal or Vertical but cannot be a Diagonal_
_8. Make the Groups as large as Possible_

This video will be helpful to all the students of science and engineering in understanding the K-map rules for Simplifying the Boolean Expression.
