I made a computer again. It can do a lot of stuff the previous one couldn't and can do most stuff that I'd ever wanted a TPT computer to do. It definitely can churn out Fibonacci numbers and primes. Check the relevant forum thread too.

    this is one of the fastest computers in the powder soy

    @RandomGoober And from my experience, writing and maintaining assembly code is significantly harder and less productive than working with higher-level languages like C/C++. Nearly all modern software development relies on higher-level languages because they are more accessible, maintainable, and portable.

    @RandomGoober Using a transpiler to convert between different assembly languages (such as MIPS or ARM32 to another architecture) is generally not a practical approach though. Programming directly in modern ASM is notoriously difficult and time-consuming.

    Consult the manual.

    i misread mandelbrot, but Vector would be significantly quicker, in theory

    so, theoretically 16kB max, if you were using vector graphics for the mantelroot one you could get more speed, you are programming for raster, shuch is extremely power hungry and requires higher clock speeds

    Nope, it can do 4x more at most, as in the bits and pieces save.
