  @7VY changing it's tmp value. Filt change array/phot color bits. Move mouse over the one to see some colored strips in upper-right corner. Check it in tpt wiki it's nicely described here.

  How do i set filt to the logic gate and what does the filt change about the beam?

  In that save, the computer was _programmed_ to facilitate a game of "snake". The computer is comprised of MANY logic gates (you can think of each pixel of FILT as having up to 30 of such, and BRAY and some FILT replacing your INST "wires"; this is the "60Hz subframe" technology I mentioned), including an adder, that together achieve the aim of programmability. user:LBPHacker and user:mark2222 have some tutorials.

  @7VY "Programmable" means "able to be programmed". An adder cannot be "programmed", meaning given a _set of instructions_ (imagine a grocery list) to execute, but is rather used to achieve the aims of a program. A program could be a _set of instructions_ (AKA an "algorithm") that "instruct" a _circuit_ to perform an addition _using_ an adder. An adder is just one small part of a fully functioning computer like in id:2067131.

  @Schmolendevice I made a concept full adder, is this what you mean by programable? id:2385331

  @player4444 "RAM" on TPT is inherently nonvolatile and constitutes VERY old technology on TPT. I pioneered the first "60Hz" (one read/write per frame) FILT-RAM (FRAM) 4 years ago. mark2222 and LBPHacker pioneered the first "60Hz" programmable computing devices, so you should check out their saves or talk to them, though I can give some advice on subframe too, though I haven't been very active these days.

  You can't really call this a "computer" until it's "Turing complete", meaning it can be programmed to perform computations; what you have made is a mere _logic circuit_. A quick search of "computer" on the search-bar will show lots of examples. TPT experienced the technology you are demonstrating more than 8 years ago. Today, "subframe" is the main area for further innovation as seen in LBPHacker, FuriousWeasel, mark2222's and my own saves.

  The real thing we need are consistent logic gates, ones that dont jam up and glitch. Its the NOT gate in general that always jams up.

  I don't know how Im going to do it but Ill make it so it can store 4 addresses.

  Ill be uploading a small EEPROM(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) since no one has made one.
