OR gate

An OR gate is a basic digital logic component that outputs a high signal (usually represented as 1) if at least one of its input signals is high. If both inputs are low (0), the output will be low. Think of it like a light switch: turning on either switch or both will turn on the light; only when both are off will the light be off. OR gates are fundamental in digital circuits, enabling decision-making processes where multiple conditions can trigger an action.
