Boolean idempotence
Idempotence means that, when we combine a value with itself using an operation, we get the same value back again.
In the case of the AND operation, we have:
0 \cdot 0 = 0 1 \cdot 1 = 1 - So
A \cdot A = A
In the case of OR, we get:
0 + 0 = 0 1 + 1 = 1 - So
A + A = A
A \cdot A = A
A + A = A
