    Abstract: Methods of operating a memory include determining a voltage level of a plurality of voltage levels at which a memory cell is deemed to first activate in response to applying the to a control gate of that memory cell for each memory cell of a plurality of memory cells, determining a plurality of voltage level distributions from numbers of memory cells of a first subset of memory cells deemed to first activate at each voltage level of the plurality of voltage levels, determining a transition between a pair of voltage level distributions for each adjacent pair of voltage level distributions, and assigning a respective data state to each memory cell of a second subset of memory cells responsive to the determined voltage level at which that memory cell is deemed to first activate and respective voltage levels of the transitions for each adjacent pair of voltage level distributions.

    Abstract: Methods of operating memory include generating a data value indicative of a level of a property sensed from a data line while applying potentials to control gates of memory cells of more than one string of series-connected memory cells connected to that data line. Methods of operating memory further include generating data values indicative of levels of a property sensed from data lines while applying potentials to control gates of memory cells of strings of series-connected memory cells connected to those data lines, performing a logical operation on a set of data values comprising those data values, and determining a potential to be applied to control gates of different memory cells of those strings of series-connected memory cells in response to an output of the logical operation on the set of data values.

    Abstract: Methods for operating memory cells include applying a respective minterm, comprising a plurality of variables, to control gates of series strings of memory cells, each series string programmed as a plurality of pairs of complementary memory cells such that certain ones of the plurality of variables are enabled, and logically combining each of the minterms into a logic function output. Memories include a plurality of memory cells configured in series strings of memory cells, wherein each series string of memory cells is configured to provide a minterm comprising a plurality of variables, each variable enabled responsive to a state of an associated, respective memory cell.
