19 NANDs
Não existe um circuito mais simples que esse.
Há um código para testá-lo abaixo da imagem. Quanto à compreensão, isso é difícil. Existem alguns portões IF, e as entradas são agrupadas em um triângulo com as linhas de canto livres adicionadas para análise uma a uma, mas não de uma maneira simples. Se alguém conseguir entender, ficarei impressionado.

// I am sure there are no simpler solutions to this problem.
// It has a logical depth of 11, which is deeper than
// circuits using a few more NANDs.
