Boolean networks {canalyzing Boolean function} can have input that determines node output. For example, OR has two inputs and is canalyzing, because if either input is 1, output is 1. EXCLUSIVE OR is not canalyzing, because inputs depend on each other. If input number is two, 14 of 16 possible Boolean functions are canalyzing. EXCLUSIVE OR and IF AND ONLY IF are non-canalyzing. For Boolean functions with more than two inputs, few are canalyzing. Canalyzing functions have fewer interactions and so are simpler.
