The Maths Guy

Hey Everyone.

Thought I'd take the time to introduce myself.

My name's Tyler.

I'm studying Math, Mechanical Engineering, and Comp. Sci. Currently. Set to graduate in 2 years, +/- 1 Sem.

I just recently took a pure Logic course, and a discrete math course, I imagine some of you are familiar with those subjects. My god, hard classes...

I recently saw a video on YouTube about the working computer made by a veteran of this group. I hope I get to meet that person, as well as learn to make memory and storage structures with redstone. I'm currently in a break between semesters and have more free time than I'm used to, so, time to tinker with redstone.

This is probably the best place to do it.

looking forward to meeting you all. Big Grin

Guy0123456789 said the same thing, or are you him? Can you tell which vid? Well, most veterans aren't here anymore though some of us still work on the comp sci heavy side (me and lorddecapo for the most part).

Are you more about trying to use mc mechanics to build memory or about the hierarchy/caching/prefetching/protocolls?

And welcome to ORE!

Hey, Sorry for the delay. Well, I was originally about learning memory, but knowing memory is useless if you don't know how to apply it, so now I'm trying to build an.. ALU? Is that what it's called when you have an adder which can do + and -?

And now I'm all about learning all I can about computing with redstone.

Anyway, this is really interesting. No I'm not Guy1234...

An AU (arithmetic unit) can do + and -. An ALU is an AU with a logic unit multiplexed to it. That allows it to do functions similar but not limited to AND, OR, XOR.

Edit* Welcome to ORE! I am a Computer Engineering student with 3 semesters left so I am in a similar boat!

There are so many people in the past i would want to mention also, but my backdoor is always open for you.
