mapS is the fourth SoC developed by Rawing and me. It offers 5 bit variables and is quite fast.

    @Rawing and @drakide: I really love mapS, but it honestly needs an upgrade and other demonstrations of it's capabilities. I acknowledge how long this must have taken to but nowadays most TPT users aren't very patient and want a simulation that won't take too much time to use.

    I got a score of 4.

    @Rawing I know how that is, make something work then upgrade it later. @Drakide Of course. I think Ark discovered/invented it anyway. Here are some examples; 1295658 Cram, 1307826 Teh Snake, 1430267 Word Printer, 1482765 Sign tool 2.0.

    this may be efficient for numbers up to 50, after that it's just a nuisance, and for numbers over 1000 it is impossible. however Arks bin -> dec is a lot more efficient since you can input bits in the trillion region and output is in blocks of 4 bits. even though it is a lot bigger and slower, for a computer i'd definetly recommend it since it crunches big numbers which you may need.

    @G-LinuxorU one problem with your bin ->dec. if i input 11001 it would give a output which i would hook up to display 25; and if i input 100011 it would give me a completely different output line which i would hook up to display 35. (second half above this comment)

    @G-LinuxorU: Nice converter! May we use it in our next computers?

    @G-LinuxorU: Thanks for that bin->"dec" converter. In our defense, we know our converter isn't state-of-the-art (and wasn't when we published this), but we wanted to publish the computer asap and the converter worked well enough. (Heck, we even built that stupid INST thingy to rearrange the output bits instead of actually building the converter correctly!)

    I can't understand how most of it works, but i do see some Bin->Dec's that could use upgrading. Here's some Cray Bin->Dec id:1410219

    This is awesome!
