Abstract
In this report, asymptotic upper and lower bounds are given for the minimum number of gates required to compute a function which is only partially specified and for which we allow a certain amount of error. The upper and lower bounds match. Hence, the behavior of these minimum circuit sizes is completely (asymptotically) determined.
