ORE Builder Admission - ender_scythe - 10-11-2016

Minecraft name: ender_scythe
What do you like the most about redstone?: How it's Turing-complete by using 2 components: a conductor and an inverter.
What's a thing you have made which demonstrates redstone knowledge?: I have several worlds which contain many tests I have done with redstone. And I am working on an I/O based computer.
What does it do?: The I/O based computer is focused on its I/O port, which allows it to communicate with and potentially control other contraptions
Image and/or video, from imgur.com or youtube.com: These are the schematics, as this hasn't been built yet: http://imgur.com/a/8SWAv .
What do you plan on making for your build trial?: I'm not sure, quite possibly the unique ROM that the IOn computer will use. If that's too large (it's 256 lines) I can build a chunk of Hansian RAM connected to a Koala fast decoder, and connect that to some lights for a nice light show.
Do you agree with the rules?: Wholeheartedly, they align well with my personal "kindness" rules.

EDIT: More qualification.

I have built the ALU. It is a two-bit, four function, ripple carry ALU.
The ALU's name it the "IOn ALU".

Functions======
Arithmetic:
Addition
Subtraction
Comparison

Logical:
NOT A

Color Code======
Purple: Input A
Lime: Input B
Dark Green: Adder
Magenta: NOT A
Light Gray: Operation Decoder
Pink: Comparison
Light Blue: Subtraction
Pink+Light Blue: Triggered by comparison and/or subtraction
White: Output

Screenshots======
This screenshot isn't of the final product! To view the final product, look at the schematic!

Schematics/Structure Block NBTs======
The thing itself (schematic): http://www.mediafire.com/file/xxx5bw8r3422bto/ion_alu.schematic
With control console (schematic): http://www.mediafire.com/file/x32zb7iubm6zrmc/ion_alu_withconsole.schematic

Stage one (NBT, requires other file): http://www.mediafire.com/file/98izjbzxxg3g6g3/redstone_computation_twobitalu.nbt
Stage two (NBT, spawned by other NBT): http://www.mediafire.com/file/tylploaigfte132/redstone_computation_twobitaluinputs.nbt

PS: It's quite slow (I forgot what I thought to put here).

I see that you have some knowledge about how computers work, but the minimum requirement for the build trial is an RCA ALU. Also, you should put something other than schematics to show your redstone knowledge.

You seem very worthy for Builder and you can also spell properly ;), hope someone accepts you soon so you can trial. Good luck!

plox do not post in other's applications thank you very much

I was afraid of that. I don't have anything for that computer built yet, could I re-apply at a later date, once I have everything built?

Also: if I fail the application process could I apply to the school server and re-apply? I applied being quite "cocky" and now I'm regretting it.

You definitely have enough knowledge about computers to join the server. Unfortunately, being able to build something using redstone is pretty important on a redstone server.

As Lambda said, you don't have to build the whole CPU just for your application, an ALU is just enough. Once you have some screenshots, just post the images in this thread so we can consider it.

It is unprobable that you will fail any applications here, but you can make an application to the school server at any time, if you want to become able to transfer your knowledge in computer science to redstone.

I'm capable of making computers in Redstone, just not this one, yet.
I'll post to this once the ALU and the registers are done, hopefully you guys will like it.


RE: ORE Builder Admission - LambdaPI - 10-12-2016

I hope I like it Big Grin


RE: ORE Builder Admission - ender_scythe - 10-23-2016

Hello, again! I just finished the ALU, I decided to not include the registers, as they will be standard bazil/basil flops.

I am putting/have put the specs in the post above, as quotes (as far as I know) don't allow attachments.


RE: ORE Builder Admission - LambdaPI - 10-23-2016

Can I see a picture of the ALU please?
