40d Talk:Mechanical logic

This should be merged into computing. VengefulDonut 09:28, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

I made it as a separate article because it seemed rather large, and I wanted to avoid swamping the computing thread, which covers all kinds of computing, with a massive amount of mechanical-only stuff. Perhaps this page should be linked to by computing, instead? --Sukasa 18:35, 4 July 2008 (EDT)

Also, the diagrams aren't clear. I suggest using {{RT}} or {{qd}}. VengefulDonut 09:30, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

I'll do that, thanks. --Sukasa 18:35, 4 July 2008 (EDT)

Diagram Colour

okay, just to maintain a clear colour scheme for anyone else who's making a Qd version of the diagrams...

The Three primary colours are either for the first three inputs, or two inputs and the output if there are few enough inputs. The Three two-colour combinations (Purple, Yellow, and Teal) are for the next three inputs, or outputs. White or greyscale colours should be avoided, as they are too similar to the rest of the diagram.

heh, I know these are somewhat hard-to-read, and for the adder, there aren't enough colours, but if for everything else we try and follow this, it should make it a little easier to read. Lastly, in the memory logic devices, just colour D as if it were an input. thanks to anyone who helps :D --Sukasa 18:52, 4 July 2008 (EDT)

IMO, It would be easier on you (for making the diagrams) and easier on others (for reading the diagrams) to leave them uncolored. VengefulDonut 19:41, 4 July 2008 (EDT)
