Kan extension is a universal construct of generalized data type defined in Category Theory.

Proposed Application

Conceptually, we can use Kan Extension to generalize logic gates, specifically, two inputs, one output gates.

There are a total of 16 possible 2-input, 1-output, logic gates. They should be generalizable and represented using Kan Extension.
