What would they mean by this question?
Now it says convert it into NAND AND NOR function forms separately, which is confusing as hell because I don't know if the output is supposed to be the same, if they want 2 completely separate circuits one with a nand gate and one with a nor gate or what.


They want two distinct expressions, one with operations in the form of \$\overline {X \cdot Y}\$ and one with operations in the form of \$\overline {X + Y}\$.


  Now the next question says to construct the new circuits separately but then it says confirm ITS operation in accordance with THE truth table. I have the truth table and circuit for the first expression. Do I have ADD or is this question extremely vague?


The question is a little broken. It should read "their operation" in order to agree with the previous fragment.
