Class 12: Computing Machines (Constitution Day!)

Posted by David Evans on 19 Sep 2011 in Classes | Comments Off

Class 12: Slides [PPTX] (Note: I removed the three-bit adder example from these slides since we went through it very quickly today and it probably didn’t make much sense. I’ll go through it in more detail on Wednesday.)

Quiz 2: [PDF]

Jefferson’s Odometer

Jefferson’s Plan for Establishing Uniformity in the Coinage, Weights, and Measures of the United States. How many current members of Congress could understand Jefferson’s math and physics? (I believe the answer is just one, but I hope someone can prove me wrong in the comments.)

To the metric system! (Video)
