16 bit multiplier - shift add - _Mystery_Man - 04-24-2020

The multiplier here is a shift and add multiplier. It runs by shifting the A register to the left and the B register to the right. when the least significant bit on Reg B is 1, it adds the accumulating value of A in the adder. The adder it self is 2 hertz, or simply 2 additions per second meaning that the multiplication takes ~ 8 secs to complete.
