# --description--
A $k$-input binary truth table is a map from $k$ input bits (binary digits, 0 [false] or 1 [true]) to 1 output bit. For example, the $2$-input binary truth tables for the logical $AND$ and $XOR$ functions are:
| x | y | x AND y |
|---|---|---------|
| 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 0 |
| 1 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| x | y | x XOR y |
|---|---|---------|
| 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 0 |
How many $6$-input binary truth tables, $τ$, satisfy the formula
$$τ(a, b, c, d, e, f) \\; AND \\; τ(b, c, d, e, f, a \\; XOR \\; (b \\; AND \\; c)) = 0$$
for all $6$-bit inputs ($a$, $b$, $c$, $d$, $e$, $f$)?
# --hints--
`circularLogic()` should return `15964587728784`.
```js
assert.strictEqual(circularLogic(), 15964587728784);
```
# --seed--
## --seed-contents--
```js
function circularLogic() {
return true;
}
circularLogic();
```
# --solutions--
```js
// solution required
```
