Hi!
After 1 year without posting new videos I'm back.
I'll be posting v2.0 of my old inventions made on Phun, now with ALGODOO!!

Post saying your favorite invention that I did on phun and I'll make a 2.0 of it.

-----------------
About the calculator.


To understand how it works, you'll need first have to undestand how Binary works... like, 10 in binary it's not "ten" its 2.
Because in binary we have just 2 numbers: 1 and 0, and the 1 says that you have to 'count' a number and 0 you dont have to count it.... and the number starts in 1 and it goes with x2 multiplier...
It sounds confusing, I know. Maybe google can explain you better...

About the calculator, what it does its very simple... Shown in the video, you'll see the "A" numbers... that will determine how many loops the calculator is going to do before it stops. the "B" sets how many number it'll add in each loop.
In the demonstration of the video, I made a 3x10 (011 x 0101) and what the calculator did was (2 +8) + (2 +8) + (2 +8) all the results are saved on "X", the result wich adds the numbers in binary...
When "A" reaches 0, the calculator stops and the you get the result!

The music is "T.N.T." by AC/DC

Post suggestions, doubts, etc in the comments!
Thank you for watching my video

  • Hay Really cool device u got there but how did that restittion work? didnt understand how u could get it up so high again

  • @zeat100 I have set the bounciness to a value higher than 1 in the botton box

    you cant scroll to a value higher than 1 but you can type it manually

  • I like how you used the technique of changing the restitution so you wouldn't have to put the marble back in over and over.

  • @MudPitGuys Thank you, I tried to use a mechanism to release a ball once one gets to the end but doing by restituition was easier

see all
