While messing around in math class (Boy am I a nerd, I have a notebook dedicated to redstone ideas in my backpack..) I came up with a two input circuit, Inputs a and b, and 3 outputs, a', b', and c. A', b', and c cannot be powered at the same time. Powering input a results in output a', while powering b results in b'. Powering both levers results in c, while turning of a' and b'. Here are some pictures to help grasp the concept:
The Green wool indicates which lever(s) is/are powered.
It's rather compact in my opinion, having dimensions of 5x3x2.
Here's what I meant earlier with the letters:
By no means am I claiming that I created it first, I'm just pointing out that it may be of use to redstone users in the future.
hmm... looks like an XOR with seperated outputs... cool!
(also, i have tons of papers with redstone ideas in my backpack too. ;P)
Yep. This is an XOR, but a fairly tiny one! However it is different from an XOR in that the two outside outputs are not OR'd at the end. This is actually exactly what I've used before as a comparator circuit. I used a vertical XOR design with separated outputs (3 outputs). The AND was obviously equal, and the two others were greater than and less than.
If you're really interested in productive logic, I'm gonna release a gate series that was inspired by a thread in this forum soon. I'm not really sure when. But you can also look into tri-state logic or the Toffoli and Fredkin gates.

I disagree, this really is fairly interesting. good job.
To Creative mode!
Haha! At least I'm not the only one! Thanks Guys.
