I chose 6-bit because 8-bit would be too complex for me to even bother but 4-bit was too simplistic to be of any use.
Currently I'm working on the RAM. I spent several hours and I've only just finished half the RAM. There's going to be 32 memory addresses in RAM.
It's going to be a fully functional programmable computer and I plan to make it Turing complete. So you can actually write and run complex programs as long as you can fit them within the 32 addresses in RAM. |

@Gladii
Uh, no, well, technically you could maybe. But the issue is
1. You only have 32 addresses in RAM 2. It's insanely slow
There's no way to make a redstone computer in Minecraft actually run fast. |

@xXDev You know that took him like 6 months? And it was almost the maximum size of the map.

@xXD
Yeah but I have a life. I could theoretically build a 16 bit computer but I do not want to spend more than a week on this project.
@TIV
Yeah. There are 32 memory addresses in RAM, and each separate address is a 6-bit "byte". |

Actually, this is how it goes:
1 byte 2 bytes 4 bytes 8 bytes 16 bytes 32 bytes 64 bytes 128 bytes 236 bytes
etc |

@Un
Why are you listing off bytes in powers of two?
And 128*2 is actually 256. |
