AND2(9)

✨ AND2(9) ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because today we're talking about and2 from the HAL Component collection 💖 it's literally a two-input AND gate and it's giving "small but mighty" energy, no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

and2 — a two-input AND gate 👑

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

loadrt and2 [count=N|names=name1[,name2...]]

so you load it with loadrt, and you either say count=N to get N whole copies of it, or you say names=name1[,name2...] and name each one yourself 🫶 (not both, bestie — it's one or the other, that | is doing so much work rn)

🦋 FUNCTIONS 🦋

• and2.N

that's the function, one per instance, and yes the N is a whole thing, we'll get to it 💅

💜 PINS 💜

every instance comes with its own lil trio of pins, and the N is wherever you landed, or 0, 1, 2… if you went the count= route 🌈

• and2.N.in0 — type bit, direction in ✨ input numero uno
• and2.N.in1 — type bit, direction in ✨ input numero dos
• and2.N.out — type bit, direction out 💫 the one that does the math (well, the logic)

and here's the tea about how out gets computed from in0 and in1 🍓:

in0=TRUE in1=TRUE
       out=TRUE

Otherwise,

out=FALSE

that's it. that's the whole vibe. if both inputs are TRUE, out is TRUE. anything else? out is FALSE. periodt 💀✨ (classic AND gate behaviour, we love a predictable icon)
