Is there a NoTimeAtAll circuit that...

[Hunting]

When A and B are both present, C is output. When only A is present, B is output.

I doubt it. Why do you ask?

I working on a random non-notable NTAA circuit that needs to drop marbles.

Here you go:

Code: Select all

x = 21, y = 14, rule = NoTimeAtAll
4.13A$4.A11.A$C4A.3A7.A.3A$4.3A.7A.A$6.3A5.A.3A$4.3A.3A3.A3.A$B4A.3A.

Nope, I mean, when I say C is output, B is completely empty.

I recommend choosing a different rule, or finding a way to build your circuit that doesn't require this kind of manipulation.

Hm, maybe you should find a rule which doesn't have the concept of false signals, because NTAA's entire concept of not giving an output is giving False, due to the nonexistence of timing.

That's why NTAA is confusing - it is both without timing and very timing. There's block/free anyway, so not really.

If you're trying to find a way to make a wire pass signals in both directions, I recommend finding another way to make your circuitry work. I once tried to do the same thing for a special type of adder, but eventually, I found another method that allowed me to accomplish the same goal.

How do you make serial gates? I mean take A, B, A, B, A, B... as input.

I need to know the broader intention of your circuit. There is no general workaround for two-way wires.

How does serial gates involve two-way wires? My two-way wires is intended to be a workaround for serial gates.

Also, many conduity methuselahs you mentioned were mentioned (and supposedly thoroughly searched by Guam) in CollisionsSearch as one of its defaults as well, for example, the two-blinker thing.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by serial gates. If you mean serial as in transmitting the bits one at a time, here's something that might help.

Code: Select all

x = 28, y = 88, rule = NoTimeAtAll

However, if you only want this in order to ensure that there are not timing errors, there are other methods to do that, such as ensuring that all two-input gates have inputs coming in at 180° from each other.
