What do you like the most about redstone?: I like the simplicity and ease of jumping into redstone circuits! Though, what I like mainly about the approach of redstone logic and organization is the way it can work vertically with each other. Also despite being on only a few hours, I've learned of how hexadecimal logic can work using comparators, which in of itself is awesome enough (I doubt there's been such a thing as a hex-CPU IRL!).
What's a thing you have made which demonstrates redstone knowledge?: A 1x Bit Shifter
What does it do?: It's a bit-shifter that can either do left or right logical bit shifts by one. It uses an array of multiplexers where the inputs are arranged 'zig-zag' from each other down each multiplexer to arrange the bit shift. The two extra inputs are either L-input or R-input.

Input: 1101 http://imgur.com/dGHos8j
Output (Left Shift x1): 1010 http://imgur.com/ZXl0Obl
Output (Right Shift x1): 0011 http://imgur.com/EYDOoBo
Do you agree with the rules?: Yes
If it helps any, I'm also a CS major.
