Well, seeing as this thread is going to obviously be flame bait, I'll just get straight down to it.
This is the fastest multiplier in Minecraft, ever.
Quadroman1 is the one who came up with the concept, I tweaked it and built it here and there. (So pretty much a collaboration)
Also, this uses the fastest 2 tick full adder I've ever seen, anywhere, I was originally going to use mine, but in the end this was smaller and less buggy.
And of course, this wouldn't be complete without a video...
I messed up on the video, it's not twice as fast as a full adder, I meant to say half as fast as a full adder, basically 4 ticks in this case.
That's the design of it, now to get into the actual meat of it.
This consists of renaming the inputs, mixing things up, and then it gives you a proper output, magic?
No, just anti-logic.
This picture should explain it better than words.
From what I've seen, this is the fastest, and can get a lot better, but for now I'm going to work on other things.
(The slowness of it degrades as you get higher, weird huh?) (I'm talking about designs like 8-64 bits...)
I hope this helps a lot of you redstoners out there.
If you wanna check it out, then ask to join my redstone server, and I might put you on the whitelist.
TL:DR; "A critique: I'll be prefectly honest that I thought a 4-bit Calculator made in RedPower would be a lot smaller than this. It's true that multiplication and division are no trivial task, but this is the only slightly smaller than the size (in terms of land area) I would expect from a vanilla 4-bit Calculator with the same features (if made by an RDF pro)." -Hans Lemurson
MULTIPLICATION IS TRIVIAL. (Now to prove division is too... :3)
The best part is that the tick rate exponentially drops as you build on, an 8 bit would only be 6 ticks, 16 bit would be 8 ticks, 32 bit would be 10 ticks etc. etc.
