Logic Gates :(

[Alsonia]

As much as I try I just don't get them.

When we learned them I figured "Hey maybe I'll just learn it with the practice."

So we do the homework I struggle because I still don't get the concept but I did well because Homework is open book.... so we go over them and I'm still lost.

Over the past 2 weeks I've spent about 8 hours trying to get these damn things and I have a fucking test on that Counting in Binary and Algorithms today.... and half the test is supposedly Logic Gates.


Am I just destined to not be a programmer?

Judging from what you wrote in that post...

[Luna]

what do you mean by logic gates?
AND | OR | XOR | NOT | NOR | NAND | ... ???

if that's it, where's the difficulty?

IDK, normally I don't have issues. I just don't get it, I understand hardware... I understand software, algorithms.

Ohhh I remember my freshmen years this was the class that we keep saying HUH?? WHAT?? INFORMATION OVERLOAD!! during a practical in logic gates
well you just need to understand AND and OR and that's that... the rest are cake
The one that I had a hard time was actually applying the logic gates in a Circuit board(? the one when you need to actually set the wires)

Binary is fine Hexadecimal is Hell(I hate thinking)
just keep multiplying.. 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128... and so on
I remember the A=0,0,1,1 B=1,0,1,0 the you AND or OR or NOT and so on...
