09:55 AM polprog: https://people.computing.clemson.edu/~mark/330/control.txt rue_mohr
09:59 AM rue_mohr: http://people.computing.clemson.edu/~mark/330/
09:59 AM rue_mohr: ugh
10:00 AM rue_mohr: looks like its a book
10:02 AM rue_mohr: for a course
10:03 AM rue_mohr: some state machine stuff
10:03 AM polprog: yea
10:06 AM rue_mohr: I dont know if I'm the only one to make state machines using that table generator software like I do
06:09 PM rue_mohr: polprog, you still up?
06:11 PM rue_mohr: Tom_L, ?
06:12 PM Tom_L: WHAT!
06:12 PM rue_mohr: :) borred?
06:12 PM Tom_L: in a bit
06:12 PM Tom_L: finishing a couple chores
06:13 PM rue_mohr: almost finished the addition to the house then :]
06:13 PM Tom_L: huh?
06:13 PM rue_mohr: chores
06:13 PM rue_mohr: finishing that 3rd story are you?
06:13 PM Tom_L: that would be a project not a chore
06:36 PM rue_shop4: -- new instructions --
06:36 PM rue_shop4: clear bit if F is set, otherwise NOP
06:36 PM rue_shop4: clear bit if F is clear, otherwise NOP
06:37 PM rue_shop4: set bit if F is set, otherwise NOP
06:37 PM rue_shop4: set bit if F is clear, otherwise NOP
06:37 PM rue_shop4: write v to output O if F is clear, otherwise NOP
06:37 PM rue_shop4: write v to output O if F is Set, otherwise NOP
06:38 PM rue_shop4: clear bit O, skip next instruction
06:38 PM rue_shop4: Set bit O, skip next instruction
06:38 PM rue_shop4: Set bit O, jump to A
06:38 PM rue_shop4: Clear bit O, jump to A
06:41 PM rue_shop4: wait for input I to be set, then jump
06:41 PM rue_shop4: wait for input I to be clear, then jump to A
06:42 PM rue_shop4: Jump to A+F (A or A+1)
07:43 PM aandrew: it sounds like you might benefit from a "not next instruction" instruction
07:43 PM aandrew: clear bit if F is set, otherwise NOP
07:43 PM aandrew: then has a not <next> to do the "clear bit if F is clear"
07:44 PM aandrew: I might have maybe possibly (fingers and toes crossed) got my son interested in building stuff from not-paper
07:44 PM aandrew: he usually builds little paper craft things but just built a MUCH larger (as in probably 16 x 30") papercraft model of a lambroghini
07:45 PM aandrew: it's quite nice (not his design but well designed)
07:45 PM rue_shop4: see if he can build a papercraft AND gate
07:45 PM rue_shop4: (working)
07:45 PM aandrew: and I'm thinking a small hand brake and a supply of thin aluminum along with a spot welder might make him move up
07:46 PM aandrew: heh he hasn't got bit by the mechanical movements yet
07:46 PM aandrew: he had a short stint where he was making cardboard gears and htey worked remarkably well for the crudeness of them
07:46 PM aandrew: but that seems to have not held his interest
07:56 PM rue_shop4: hmm
07:56 PM rue_shop4: yay, I got the serial demo working again on the 1bit
08:48 PM Tom_L: :)
11:07 PM rue_mohr: new instuctions added...
11:07 PM rue_mohr: Tom_L, borred yet?
11:11 PM rue_mohr: great, I need to make test programs for 11 more instuctions
