This is the normal (Gaussian) distribution which was created on tpt before with water by erwins_cat, but mine is with electricity only which made it a bit tricky ;)

    @static: When you google the Gaussian distribution you will see, that the sparks are supposed to tend to go to the middle. This is also called the bell curve because it looks like a bell (you need a little immagination for mine to look like a bell)

    @Katkat1000: It just looks like that because the INST of the left column sparks the SWCH of the right column. But this doesn't affect the nuber of "lights" turned on in the right column. So it doesn't matter whether you leave it like that or add some INSL.

    When a column is sparked, both colour columns beside it get sparked; I do not think this is supposed to happen. I plan to recreate this (referenced to you) with a few additions

    or increase the number of ways it will go to the edges, nice job though

    because according the laws of statistics there are far more combinations that will send it to the middle than to the outside so you need to get rid of some of the paths that lead to the middle.

    @slasheru, It's meant to be something to produce something random, @benthecrazy, you need to make something that will not go to the centre so much because at the moment it will go towards the centre

    I bet the pioneers see all the good creations and they know that their "inventions" made creations like this possible. One thing that was taking a bit time to create were the "displays" that show how many skarks traveled through the input. You can use it if you want because I haven't seen any other creation using a counter like this one...
