[QUOTE=Tobba;31505926]I should probably have called it a decoder :v:
You can easly turn it into a multiplexer though[/QUOTE]
Pardon my sleep deprived mind but how would you turn it into multiplexer?

Pistons

each floor takes two bits, so if you want to e.g to 8 bits you'll need to have 4 floors per decoder state
Drank some coffee and came up with this:

Obviously it's not complete and needs a redstone tower to transmit the signal but it's more compact than my multiplexer. (And I probably could make it more compact but I'm still kind of sleep decprived.

Proof of concept i built around my 4 bit decoder
Now off for doing a real 2-bit multiplexer, that can run through 8-bit data
Green eggs and RAM

Also in the background is instruction memory and Tobba's binary decoder.
Could you not use this sort of thing to add stuff to a rom while it moves hence making a dynamic memory?

You can only access a ROM sequential.

I'm gonna need some smaller RAM.
Done with the 2-bit input / 8-bit data multiplexer

BEHOLD 16 BITS OF GLORIOUS RAM

Also since I uh, stole your multiplexer design heres a compact memory cell:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/vhvG7.png[/img]
On the right is writing to a bit, the left lever is the reset button (normally on, pulse it to get the cell to update), and the repeater is the output.
BEHOLD, 4 BITS OF RAM

8 bits
You did, but there is a more compact version that is essentially the same (If I'm reading those pictures right)
Make an explanatory video about it?
I just realised how much I'm enjoying reading + watching you guys come up with this stuff :P
Keep at it! :D

Will do
[editline]3rd August 2011[/editline]
WorldEdit made all my pistons face down, great.
What my cell does is that when the CLK line is pulsed, the inputted bits are written into the memory
Its fully save-safe, and it has a line so you can stop it from outputting anything, so you can technically have all the data go on the same line, and use a decoder for the READ and CLK lines
I used a version like that but it wasn't compact enough for my needs so I changed it.
The only thing is that if you turn the signal on even if the reset line is hot it will still turn on the bit.
But it doesn't turn it off so I should be okay.
Don't know if it has a name, or the importance of it, but I made a little power switcher with an on/off option.
The left lever is the power, and the right chooses which thing its powering.

Don't worry same here. But I'm pretty much left at the RAM stuff. I make practical redstone contraptions for traps or hidden passageways. I don't know how to or see a reason why I would make a 1950s computer.
Heres a horizontal decoder for anyone who wants

Jesus christ guys, can you post some creations that people actually understand? Like unique doors or some shit? I don't know what the fuck a memory cell is, nor do I know what an 8-bit decoder is or what they do.

A memory cell stores information.
(for later use)
Um, sorry for the subject change, but I made Yankee Doodle on my music machine... it's much more accurate than the Ode to Joy tune. It's not nearly as complex or impressive as those memory cells or whatever the hell you guys are doing, but... I wanna post it. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Rst_xIYCHU[/media]
I feel stupid posting this with all the computer stuff going on. And I also hope it's not late.
But this uses pistons, to extend the amount of time a signal is sent out for using a button.
You can increase the length of signal by simply adding more repeaters, and changing the delay times.
Some of you may find it useful, I don't know.

To understand this stuff, and to be able to build stuff like this without tutorials, should I start learning from redstone guides, or electronics and wiring guides? Because I'm sure most of the people that do stuff like this have a history of knowledge of wiring.

I don't have any experience in wiring.
Honestly, I learned the basics of redstone (wire transmits stuff, torch inverts signal) and then just experimented.

I've always used an RSNOR latch to extend button times. But this is easy to make too.
