    Hi everyone, the new version of the simulation software is now available here: sebastian.itch.io/digital-logic-sim
    Please note: I made a mistake in part of my boolean algebra explanation, and I've uploaded a quick video to correct that here: ruclips.net/video/A-vLRThfJ4Q/видео.html
    Also, the 1080p quality setting seems to have a lot of visual artifacts for some reason , so if you're able to watch at 1440p instead I'd highly recommend it!

      "This was supposed to be just a short segment"
      Looks like some scope creep happened and it turned into 7 short segments ;)
      Absolutely love this series btw, such an awesome idea!

      It's because RUclips gives a lot more bandwidth to resolutions higher than 1080p. So even if you can't watch it at full resolution, the higher bandwidth still makes for a better picture.

    A while ago, I saw the first video you made which used that logic gate program, and was inspired to make a simplified version of that program. One of the things I tried to make was a 7-Segment Display. Eventually I did it, and while my solution was absurdly massive and overcomplicated, I was too busy celebrating the fact that I actually made a functioning program and made something with that program, and I have you to thank for it.
    I rarely write comments like this, but just know that even if we don't comment, there are many of us who are inspired by you, whether we're newcomers who have never written a "Hello World!" in their life, or veterans working on their next project.
    These videos are not only high quality, but incredibly informative, so keep up the outstanding work! Let's get you to 2 million subs next year!

    The way it teaches binary through simple components which are "boxed up" or "chippified" and reused to build more complex circuits is endlessly satisfying.
    I feel it would make for a super compelling (and educational) game where you make circuits from scratch and past "chips" to the point where you've made a very complex design, and it's your circuitry all the way down until you get to basic gates

    I really forgot how simple and incredible logic is in our computers. How many things can be represented as 1 and 0. It is as incredible as how many different things can be made up of the same atoms.
    Thank you Sebastian for the great videos!

    A feature you might add is to have a button to cycle through all input combinations. And perhaps have a way to tell it what inputs are allowed.
    Very nice project you're working on, and of course a brilliant presentation!

    I love this series so much! Reminds me of doing redstone logic in minecraft as a kid, and the little tool youve made (with the ability to construct more complex gates/chips out of simple ones) is something I've always wanted as a tool for logic designing! I've tried programming something like it myself, but always got bored by having to make UI and never got very far.

    I built an ALU in Minecraft 2 years ago by following the first video I just looked up how to make logic gates in the game. Funnily enough I tried to make a 7 segment display but had no idea how to do it. I guess I’ll finally do it .
    Edit: I built the 7 segment display and attached it to the output of my ALU. It works perfectly, although it is somewhat slow and it’s also huge. I don’t know if I’ll try building further as it will take a lot of time and be quite complicated maybe this could become a really long project(well technically it already is).

    Hello Sebastian, just a quick suggestion if I may: On 16:00 where you talk about how the solver works, a better way to approach the problem IMHO would be to get a K-map minterms or maxterms solution and then apply De Morgan's laws to rewrite the expression so that it uses the allowed logic gates only. I have no idea how long this would take (especially if aiming for minimum gates) but it would be at least closer to how a human designer would approach the problem and possibly not need so long to refine to something passable as with completely random generation.
    Thanks for the awesome vid!

  • @jucom756

    16:10 you can convert any truth table into a huge net of or and not and and gates (a net that litterally just takes every output and gives the exact inputs needed, then ors all those together), and then use some simplification algorithms to convert that to as small of an arrangement as possible.

    Would you consider allowing others to try your truth table resolving program? I'm mostly curious how you wrote that. It seems fairly complex but oddly useful. And it may not be 100% but it seems to have worked fairly well. Just curious, because I would love to understand that one. You are making awesome videos by the way, I'm hooked!
