'Game Of Thrones' Season 8, Episode 2: The Night King Cometh Preview (HBO)

Game of Thrones kicked things off last week with a season premiere that was largely about various characters giving one another looks. Sansa giving Daenerys an icy stare. The dragon eyeing Jon as he tried to get it on with his queen. Jaime and Bran gazing at one another, Jaime's face a mixture of concern and regret; Bran as implacable as ever. Sam staring at the Mother of Dragons as she told him how she killed his father and brother.

So many looks. Not so much action. I thought it was a very good episode that, like virtually every other Game Of Thrones season premiere, started off slow, setting the stage for the episodes to come. Of course, with just five more episodes, I can understand why many fans felt things moved a little slowly, and precious time was wasted with Jon and Dany galavanting about on their (starving) dragons for no good reason.

I suspect things will begin to heat up in episode 2, at least judging by the trailer and the new images HBO has released. First, let's watch the trailer:

Lions And Dragons And Wolves, Oh My!

The blurb for this episode is: "The battle at Winterfell is approaching. Jaime is confronted with the consequences of the past. A tense interaction between Sansa and Daenerys follows."

Two things appear to be happening in this preview trailer. First, we have Jaime presenting himself before Sansa and Daenerys, likely begging for forgiveness and offering up his sword. We don't hear from any of the Starks, though they have plenty of their own problems with the Kingslayer, but Daenerys is rather fearsome.

Quine McCluskey Method of Function Realization

In simplification of Boolean Expression, we observed that the adjacent minterms can be reduced. These minterms are reduced because they differ by only one literal. For example, _ _ _ ABC and ABC can be reduced because only B literal differs. The Binary numbers quivalent to these minterms are 110 and 100. Note that the 2's place indicates literal that differs. Thus we can say that the minterms whose binary equivalent differ only in one place can be combined to reduced the minterms. This is the fundamental principle of the Quine McCluskey method . Like in other methods, in this method minterms are listed to specify the given function. However, the minterms are written in their binary equivalents. These minterms are grouped according to number of 1s contained and separated by a horizontal line between each number of 1s category. This separation of minterms helps in searching the binary minterms that differ only in one place....
