I am so ready for this series, i've been trying to learn how to build redstone computers lately, but i always miss something, and now i get to learn from the man himself! I'll be excited to see where you take this series, keep it up Matt.
Bro you are the absolute best. I've watched literally hours of videos trying to explain logic Gates, but none of them are as straightforward and informative as this. Thanks so much!
Same. I finally understood how logic gates work in minecraft by actually learning how logic gates actually work thanks to Sebatstian Lague's channel 👀. He currently has 3 videos of him explaining how computers "compute" from the ground up using his logic gate simulation app and real life electronic 😁.
You are doing a great thing for the computer science field by making these videos. Not only teaching these important concepts but also making it fun and relatable for anyone, especially the kids that may be just a small nudge away from realizing their dream of joining this line of work. My hat's off to you friend, you deserve more love than the algorithm has given you so far :)
This series taught me how computers work, and now I’m making irl circuits. I think this is one of the first educational series that has really had a big impact on my life. edit: I’m currently working on the biggest minecraft computer I’ve ever done
It helped me figure out how to set up a monkey switch (How I grew up calling a two way switch) is nice being to un hide stairs then hide them again once underground.
I'm a computer science major so I knew that you can make an AND by this method, but the visual representation using torches made so much sense and I'd never thought about Demorgan's theorem that way!
Please keep up this series. I will watch and learn whole video. I am kinda learning about logic gates in school so making it in minecraft not only make it clear but also fun :)
If there is only one video a new redstoner watches, it's this one. I've learned and applied these examples over and over again. Thank you for making these!!
THANK YOU. Im a builder or carpenter in real life, but electronics has always amazed me, this is the first time ive been able to understand why these are needed. lol you fliped on my light bulb. will be mumbling to myself for weeks now. thanks again. Rusty
I am really in love with this series and the whole channel in general. You have been the most motivational and helpful teacher of redstone I have ever come across. Please continue making these videos. I love it.
This video is very clear and easy to follow, the only improvement I could suggest is showing the audience what situations you would actually use the gates. Love the vid broski
This video is really helpful for me who is learning how to use redstone. For the past few weeks i have been learning redstone and implementing redstone into my world. Thanks for simplifying redstone logic gates so it’s easier to understand!
Oh my god, I have watched many videos and taken many computer science classes in hs (and one in college) and yet this is the first time I have completely understood how all these gates work. Showing that an and gate is made of not and or gates was genius and a really great way to teach it. You should literally be a computer science teacher and you can use Minecraft as a teaching device.
Mhm from an educational standpoint they should teach you how those gates build up on another. Especially in college as higher math should teach you how +,-,*,\ and all the other stuff build on top of that as well.
Oh. My. God. I knew the basics but i just randomly watched this, and oh GOD i got so many new ideas with the design variations you put! Ive faced many problems when trying to do the gates vertically, but now Im just fine with them. THANKYOU
Explanation for the last gate, if one lamp Is on it allows one of the last torches to power turning on the gates but if both are off or on it allows the middle torch to power turning off both end torches and thus turning off the last lamp.
From simple logic gates like this you can scale up to a 1 bit processor then a 4 bit processor then a ALU. This is cool because just from these simple gates you can make a functional computer by just using hundreds of the these logic gates
Redstone is the foundation of my knowledge about electronics and programming. It is fairly easy to combine components like this to achieve your goal, and there's not much to worry about. Playing around with real electronics is fun, but if you connect the wrong things then you'll see/smell the magic smoke and some of your components will be broken. You also need to buy a lot of components and you will still run into problems where you don't have the things you need. So I find it hard to commit to a bigger project and to solder components into a final product. With programming it's hard to decide which language to use and you need to figure out how to set everything up. You also don't want to crash your system or break things, and if you don't know much about computers yet it'll be pretty scary to try things. If you play minecraft in Creative then it will only cost you time. There's no risk of breaking any software or hardware, and you have access to unlimited components. So it is a very safe environment to learn the basics of electronics. And you can use it to create fun things for your survival world, which is great too :D
I know programming and I saw some of your Minecraft redstone videos then I was also interested on creating programs on Minecraft using redstone and this video helped a lot thanks :)
I recently just finished the Proposition chapter in special 10th grade Math, I was pretty hyped when all of those new knowledge can be easily put into redstone.
the xor gate is my favourite because of all the interesting properties it has. for example, you can think about it as a not gate which can be turned on or off
As an engineer with 18 years in industry, I highly encourage everyone to study basic logic design. It will be very helpful for future engineers. Minecraft has turned logic design into a game with basic building blocks, essential for learning how to build logic together. Make some interesting builds! One day it may help you program computers which control aircraft (what I do).
One thing that would make it even better - utilize truth tables and demonstrate how the and and xor logic gates are derived, because it makes it even easier to remember how those two gates are built.
I just finished this video and it's great! There's brilliant explanations and I'm glad you added the symbols, though for anyone that wants to dive deep more into things like these you can follow through the series though an alternative is to read to book "But How Do It Know". It's great, and you'll learn a lot from it. Oh and I liked your newest calculator video, an upgrade from an 8-bit to a 16-bit ALU is not an easy task though I don't particularly like the device that implodes if I compute to quickly I believe. It's is pretty fast, hope to see one bigger in size in the future xd.
I'll have to check that book out. Currently reading through "Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software" (a great read if you want to go from "let's say you're a kid and want to keep talking with your best friend after bedtime but all you've got are flashlights" to "so now that we've built our RAM let's make a CPU to work with it...") and it led me to rewatch some of this series. Redstone may not be a perfect analog to real world electronics but logic gates are logic gates, latches are latches... good to know video games didn't totally rot my brain after all!
really nice to see this series ive been interested in binary and coding and tought it would be cool to learn this will give me the motivation to learn it. redstone is very simple but i imagine it not going to stay simple so looking forwards to the increasing difficulty yet to come
What would you recommend as the best comprehensive basic redstone tutorial playlist? Basically, something that will do an excellent job covering everything related to everything redstone redstone blocks can do, including concepts like hard and soft power, quasi-connectivity, etc.? And then we can come to videos on complicated circuits and have a firm graps of everything that's going on in the circuit.
I believe I already know everything you will teach (I would not get mad if you surprised me :D), I will watch anyway cause looks fun. Also, I most likely use the 3º design of XOR, its more compact and you can remove the repeaters by making it 3 tall, just would like to know why you use the 1º one, tks :D
Thanks this was so helpful. I watched the video then came up with some of my own solutions lol. My xor gate was completely based off the diagram and obviously very efficient (trust me bro)
Neat, if "Inp" stands for "Input", zero is off, and one is on, then here are the corresponding mathematic logic gates, Not Gate 1-Inp1, Or Gate 1-((1-Inp1) * (1-Inp2)), And Gate Inp1 * Inp2, XOR gate 1-((1-(Inp1*(1-Inp2))) * (1-((1-Inp1)*Inp2))).
This is going to be nice to learn from. Something that outright explains all components for once. Although I died when you did the last OR gate because it fuctions without the repeater.
I'm finally going to start learning redstone because my #1 math-nerd classmate told me that redstone can help with math (Btw I found you on rekrap2 latest video giving you a shout out so I wemt to your first ever toturials series)
this is great! i understand how gates work but how does the redstone in an xor gate work? why do compariters turn off like that. they are the only redstone device im mc i dont understand how they work
I had created sixteen logic gates in my own world, but I only had difficulty with the xor and xnor gates. After several unsuccessful attempts I succeeded

WEOW
matt
will the divsion, ect. also come?
This doesn't just teach you minecraft redstone.
It teaches you real life logic. You can apply this directly to an electronics/computer class.
Understanding logic even helps with basic argumentation or writing.
I'm literally here for engineering 101 lol
I watched this to figure out how to logic gates in a completely different game
I sadly don’t really know how to make gates with transistor stuff
4:16 this was actually the standard method for extending redstone lines before repeaters were added in beta 1.3
There's a reason Repeaters are ALSO made of exactly 2 redstone torches and a piece of dust!
It's a reference to this exact build!
@@_marshP never realized that lol
I am so ready for this series, i've been trying to learn how to build redstone computers lately, but i always miss something, and now i get to learn from the man himself! I'll be excited to see where you take this series, keep it up Matt.

Mee too
And I am in 9th class
Working in IT, had studied Computer science and here i am, fascinated by redstone logic gates like a child again. Thanks mate

Thanks man. now I can refer to this when I have trouble with redstone.
I just realized I was illogical before i saw this series.

edit: I’m currently working on the biggest minecraft computer I’ve ever done
make sure to have a gig of ram lol
Despite knowing this for years, I still learned something new: that comparator XOR gate. I never would have thought of that.
It helped me figure out how to set up a monkey switch (How I grew up calling a two way switch) is nice being to un hide stairs then hide them again once underground.
Compaxor
bruhhh, xor gate has been taught all over logic gates. i question this comment.
@@graphitic5578 chill
Different people get taught different things.
@@graphitic5578 theyre not just talking about xor gates, theyre talking about the comparator design

Finally, something to learn as a 12 year old kid.
Great way to learn, it comes with practical application, and it's something you're already interested in. Great time to get into it, I wish you luck
Now a 15 year old
... kid.?
Can’t wait to see the premiere!

Why does this help me so much? Like I build all types of red stone builds, it just depends on the situation
So basically, connecting three not gates is like stacking two lasagnas on top of each other to make one big lasagna.
Thanks for the tutorial, your teaching is gooooood, and "teaching" electronic whit minecraft is an absolute epik thing :D
Explanation for the last gate, if one lamp
Is on it allows one of the last torches to power turning on the gates but if both are off or on it allows the middle torch to power turning off both end torches and thus turning off the last lamp.
This series is amazing already! Redstone has always been what I do in Minecraft, now that I have Java I’m willing to go much deeper into it.
This series is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you, you're a godsend.
Your vid finally got my inputs working right in my machine, thank you!
Bro fr tricked me into learning circuitry in a fun and engaging way
I've been trying to figure this stuff out for myself for a while, but glad to have someone guide me a bit!
Thank you so much, it was taking me forever to figure out 'and gates' on my own!
Dude, this was the best explained example of the logic gates I have ever seen. I actually understand now. Great job!
Very cool video, like the whole series!
The basics of digital technology in minecraft are explained simply and clearly.
the 5 input and-gate was exactly what I wanted to find, thanks!
I really liked the way to do the AND gate via subtraction comparator. Really compact and fast.
Fun Fact: I thought it was a another guy tried to clone your account, because you usually only showcase cool redstone LOL
lol
From simple logic gates like this you can scale up to a 1 bit processor then a 4 bit processor then a ALU. This is cool because just from these simple gates you can make a functional computer by just using hundreds of the these logic gates
@@ReaBeee Compactness too.
Bro dissing my favorite part of computing
That was one to the gut for our mr redstone here

this is that sort of well made, niche vid that you might call 'a hidden gem'
Matt you are number 1 of my favorite RUclipsrs

This would be awesome tool for electronic teachers to use. Will have to show my little nephew he enjoys building things in minecraft.
I agree! Hope your nephew enjoys :)
Being a BCA Student... This game taught me all this when I was kid and now i know more than all my classmates
I already knew all of this, but i feel as if i've learned much from watching this video! i'm excited for the rest of the series
This is exactly what I needed! Love your video!

finally i can create my dream thanks to this series
If you think about it, it’s actually amazing how a video game can be used to learn computer science via redstone.
8:15 if you cant do this one swap it it out with torches

My jaw hurts because it dropped so many times :D Especially that first XOR gate is genius! Why did I not know this?? :D
wow. I'm Polish and this tutorial is better than any Polish tutorial for me
Liked subbed, thank you for this series 🙏 ❤️
This video 100% deservers more love! Great video. plus 1 sub!
this is all I needed to build a giant automated sorter using state machines😎
OMG yes !! keep this up!
fun fact: internally, redstone torches are actually called a "notGate"

Where's ma NAND?
Teasing, of course. super cool video! :)
"stare at it until it does make sense" thats electrical engineering resumed
suuuuper underrated
Funny that I understood logic gates only after taking Classical Logic on my Philosophy course. Never thought it would be useful in Minecraft redstone.
I-
just-
How are you not incredibly famous yet?
Neat, if "Inp" stands for "Input", zero is off, and one is on, then here are the corresponding mathematic logic gates, Not Gate 1-Inp1, Or Gate 1-((1-Inp1) * (1-Inp2)), And Gate Inp1 * Inp2, XOR gate 1-((1-(Inp1*(1-Inp2))) * (1-((1-Inp1)*Inp2))).
this is a really good tutorial, i came here from georg244p
Can you tell a circuit where we will need a XOR gate?
Also if possible please add the use of the logic gate in a circuit :)
i have circuit where i need to tell if input was different from last input stored in memory xor was perfect for that
most minecraft adders use them. ill be covering adders either in this series or a different one later on :O
Most full adders use XOR gates!
Thanks for letting me know the use of XOR
half adders (basically all adders, they're just used in a bunch of addition)
Great vid!
This is going to be nice to learn from. Something that outright explains all components for once. Although I died when you did the last OR gate because it fuctions without the repeater.
Super underrated
1:49 if you put it that way, it makes it mutch more easier to understand
Bro tysm!!!! Love your channel
I think they changed the value of how much power (range) red stone can go so the XOR gage is messed up
Yea i noticed that
This has helped me so much thank you
I'm finally going to start learning redstone because my #1 math-nerd classmate told me that redstone can help with math (Btw I found you on rekrap2 latest video giving you a shout out so I wemt to your first ever toturials series)
plane approves ofnthe tutorial
Underrated video
Somebody could learn computer science from you and this series
this is great! i understand how gates work but how does the redstone in an xor gate work?
why do compariters turn off like that.
they are the only redstone device im mc i dont understand how they work
Great video
Your videos teach me how to fish and filet. Where other redstone videos give me the fish.
would it be posible to try some logic gates with observers instead of these those would be a lot more compact and easier to understand i think
compact yeah, but not easier to understand. there would be no wires and no resemblance to real life logic gates anymore
@@mattbatwings i found it easyer to understand because you can more visualy see on or off but its maybey only my brain that works so 😀
I had created sixteen logic gates in my own world, but I only had difficulty with the xor and xnor gates. After several unsuccessful attempts I succeeded
1:42 I see a glider from Conway’s game of life
Love this good job
In Minecraft computer = transistor and repeater = diode true?
torch = transistor
Im typo "comporator" not computer
Repeater = diode torch = not gate repeator lock = transistor
