What do you like the most about Redstone?:
I love how you can take the basic systems and make complex machines by simply using small parts in many different ways. It also reminds me of making calculators and other circuits in real life, minus all the sautering and random error, as all the concepts from computer engineering apply to Redstone.
What's a thing you have made which demonstrates Redstone knowledge?:
I've made binary>decimal/decimal>binary converters, binary-based adders (In Bedrock, which I do not have access to anymore), full/half adders, 24-hour clocks, and digital output systems (Which I have shown below).
What does the thing do?:
The clock works on a counting system with 4 subsystems. The first is a 10-Hopper clock which feeds into a 1-tick limiter. This then feeds into 2 counters (3x5) which convert these ticks into minutes (fifteen signals = 1 minute), which leads into another 1-tick limiter. The third subsystem is a minute counter, with 2 counters again (10x6) and another 1-tick limiter. The final subsystem is an hour counter (10x2). This has a hard-coded reset that activates when the clock reads 24 hours. This will lead to a series of digital output systems, which I have developed and tested, but not attached to the clocks yet. The clock also has additional functionality. It is able to add hours and minutes, reset hours or minutes individually, or conduct a full reset. I have not tested the clock in lag-heavy conditions, but in all my other tests I have found that the clock works within a 1-minute error per 24 hours.

What do you plan on making for your build trial?:
A binary adder, I guess? I could also spread the circuit out and use individual logic gates to build a full adder, rather than using the more compact system. I could also make a D>B converter or vice versa.
Do you agree with the rules?:
Yes
Another thing to note: I am an ECE student, and that is more important to me than anything else. Should I have a conflict between this and my education, my studies come first. I am not saying this will happen, I just want to make it clear so that there is no bad blood down the road. Thanks! If this is declined, can you tell me what I should build/develop?
