Been trying to do something like this myself, and, I have to say, I'm suprised at how small it is! Your explanation seemed very simple(maybe because you didn't go into too much detail) and anything I try to make ends up the size of the moon! Good job!

Bruh this is invaluable to anyone looking to learn low level stuff in a fun engaging way. The presentation, analogies, and visuals are fantastic~ I came into this expecting to be entertained and engaged rather than learning anything new, but you also taught me about that Von Neumann vs Harvard memory setup!! :3

This is a really awesome and easy-to-follow explanation of how computers work. Plus a really cool and surprisingly compact CPU.
I am 2nd year into Computer engineering and i got so excited to understand and recognise the different explanations from this video! Love the content!
You are my very favorite redstone KZreadr. You've inspired me to make my own things in Minecraft and study computer science. Even though my builds are big and messy, it's a start lol. Have a great day :D
You have inspired me to get into logic gates and stuff. i have built a functional calculator in scrap mechanic and im about to start on a computer. thank you ❤️
Just found out about your channel today and I’ve binged like 7 videos lol. This one more than any proves how transformative integrated circuits was for humanity.
Thank you for this excellent quality video, and for it’s professional quality explanations. Continue like this!
The most fascinating thing about the ALU that I learned in one of the courses I took some time ago was the multiplexer. The fact that in some implementations, calculating all the operations with the provided registers and then just selecting the result through the use of the instruction id all in terms of circuits is a reasonable approach (and I understand it to be one of the more common ways of doing it) is just so beautiful (in the 'mathematical' sense) to me. Although in any case, doing it the other way around would perhaps complicate things in any case.
Ben Eater. That's where my love for this stuff started. I've known about almost all of this for some time but never finished a redstone computer project. Now I actually might finish one. Thanks :)
it's one thing to be able to make this kind of thing. It's a much different thing to be able to explain and teach it to your average laymen. I have an engineering degree, but I don't know a thing about computer architecture and comp sci, and I felt like I was very easily able to follow along. On top of that you sound very young, which is even more impressive. I imagine you're going places.
Your videos are brain candy, I always look forward to them and your channel is my favorite on the whole platform! Thank youu for putting such unbelievable amount of effort in your videos! 💗💗💗

I've been building Redstone Computers for awhile. Seeing you build one was really fun. I think you did a great job explaining the basic concepts. But there are a few more additions neccesary for the computer to be complete. For one there needs to be a stack to store return addresses when calling a function. And there needs to be a way of indirection (pointers), that allows to use data stored in a register as address to access other data. This allows for the implementation of complex data structures like linked lists.
@Hannah-ck3od
Жыл бұрын
Not really. This is a fully functional programmable computer, and while functions are a nice thing to have, it does still count as a complete computer without it. This architecture just doesn't support functions. You can work around this and get similar functionality through software, it doesn't require a hardware change. This architecture uses a save and load command instead of a defined memory pointer register. It seems like it would be an incredibly simple change to use a register address instead of an address immediate to get the same effect. I will admit though that I would not have designed it this way.

Wow,you so good at redstone,keep it up mattbatwings.
you should try making components with the new calibrated skulk sensors. I feel like it would be really fun and easy, because you can store separate sounds that hold up to 15 different power levels (some are made by the player, others can be triggered by redstone, which adds up to about 7) loops separated by sound cancelling wool. It'd make an awesome video!
