Question about what I made - anatevka - 09-20-2015

So, maybe this would have been better in the projects section, but my question is,
I created a string of piston bit storers, each one's input connected to the previous one's
output and a button at the start. 
Each bit, assuming the first bit is [bit0], takes 2^(number of bit) clicks on the button to change state from {on} to {off}. 

So, [bit0] takes 2^0 clicks, [bit1] takes 2^1 clicks, and [bit10] takes 2^10 clicks.


What kind of machine have I created through my random dabbling?

Question 2:

I made a device that stores one bit, then at a click its state is changed. I made it tilable and made it so that when a button is pressed a piston retracts allowing the bit of information to be retrieved.
So you can program a set of lights and run the program over and over again.

What is this machine called?

First one is a binary counter. Kitlith was kind enough to inform me on the school server.

The second one sounds like a D-Flipflop. Not sure though, your description is a bit confusing to me.

Yes, sorry about that. Not really sure how to explain it. If I'm on the server ask me and I'll show you.
