Algodoo

Thanks guys!

yippee! No problem.

Brilliant! Rather than the cars following a physical track, they follow a "mathematical" track in the form of an array of checkpoints. That is insanely clever, Mr. Faytree!

CeltMan -- The rules are not MY rules. This website and everything in it belongs to the company called "Algoryx". They are the ones who make the rules. I just enforce them, sort of like a police officer.

By the way, is your dad still monitoring your postings like he promised me he would? He promised to monitor everything you post including scenes AND comments.

CeltMan -- Is your dad still monitoring your postings like he promised me he would? He promised to monitor everything you post including scenes AND comments. Am I clear?

KiaanTheSonicPro -- Thanks. In the future, when you see a scene or a comment that breaks the rules, just click on the "Report" link that is attached to the scene or the comment and report it.

Not "Ablpabet". The correct spelling is: "Alphabet".

Pistols? I thought they were mailboxes!

I think you mean "Musket", as a type of antique rifle. "Mustard" is that yellow crud that some people squirt on their hotdogs.

For scenes, Click on the word "Report". For comments, click on the yellow triangle that has an exclamation point inside of it.

No more chatting here. I'm done...

Thanks.

The Field Effect Transistor (FET) has only one input which is the "Gate". Depending on whether the FET is a P-channel or N-channel type will determine how the Gate electrode controls electricity between the "Drain" and the "Source". Here is a video that describes how a FET works in detail: How FETS Function

OOPS! I see that you made a change to this scene which is not correct. You labeled the FET transistor "PNP" which is a type of "bipolar" transistor, NOT a FET which is what you had drawn.

No offense, but maybe you should learn about transistors before trying to teach others about them.

No problem! I'm sure the scene will be very interesting.

Yes, PeachCandy. And if you would have read the comments before adding your own, you would have seen that someone already mentioned that.

Nothing new. We've known about this odd behavior of Algodoo water since the app was originally released in 2009.

First of all, I am not "Bruh", I am Xray. Secondly, my comment is not spam. Just showing you how nonsensical the things you wrote are. Seriously, no one cares that you got bored, and so it's really not necessary for you to tell the world about it.

If it's not fun, then why did you make it?

By the way, what exactly is it?

No problem. I do hope you'll stick around and post more interesting scenes. Algobox is so saturated with marble races and algicosathlons that it's a refreshing change when I see the kind of scenes that this website was originally intended for.

There is no malfunction when I run the scene. Every box, including the last one folds just fine. Not sure what might be causing your problem.

Excellent!

those gates!"


Suggestions:
1. I'm sure that many people viewing your scene have no idea what a logic gate is and what they are used for. So, maybe you could write some basic explanations for each logic gate, and maybe show some simple examples of how they are used.

2. Maybe build some simple devices with those gates, such as a half-adder, a full-adder, and other assemblies that perform simple math.

3. With the addition of other components, such as a lamp, switches, a power source, and other things, you could show how some logic circuits are assembled to make things like a bi-stable multi-vibrator, a lamp flasher, a coin-flip simulator, a pulse generator, and other interesting devices.

Nice work, so far!

VOTING not allowed. READ THE RULES!

You do whatever you want with them. Or do nothing. The choice is up to you!

s_noonan -- Thanks!

1. I intended it that way because both cars use the same path.
2. Good catch.
3. You are correct. I'll change it.

I always appreciate your critique of my scenes.

nikoki - Good questions!

As an Admin, I am a volunteer. That is, I am not a paid employee of Algoryx, which is the company that developed Algodoo and the Algobox portion of the website. My job is sort of like a police officer. I watch over the website to make sure everyone obeys the rules so that the website doesn't get trashed.

Yes, I do look at every scene. That's the only way that I could know if anyone has put anything in their scenes which might be offensive or against the rules. I have the power and authority to warn people, and to delete their scenes or their comments if I see that rules have been violated.

Yes, I like doing it, otherwise I would not do it. Sometimes it's hard work, and sometimes it's very frustrating. But I do it because I believe that Algodoo is a wonderful app for education and entertainment. It is more than ten years old now, and it is more popular than it ever was before, especially with children.

I especially enjoy discussing scenes and general science (especially math and physics) with people like you because Algobox (this website) is so flooded with marble races and Algicosathlons that it's refreshing to see other, more technical scenes being made and uploaded.

Keep up the great work!

By the way, I see from your IP address that you are located in the historical city of Hiroshima. I always wanted to visit Japan and to see many of its beautiful cities. Unfortunately, that never happened, and because of my age (I am retired) it probably never will happen. But thank God for the Internet!

I will correct myself. Actually, voting is allowed as long as you do not ask for votes in your scenes or in the scene descriptions. You can only ask for votes in the comments section of scenes. The reason is, we do not want people chatting back and forth with each other in scenes or scene descriptions. Only comments can be used for general chatting, voting, or telling others what your favorite color is.

Thanks

After playing this game a number of times while testing it for bugs, I discovered that BOTH red and green cars could pass the finish line at the same time on lap 10, causing a DRAW!

No need to worry about someone tracking your exact location! The IP address only shows that the Internet signal originates somewhere in Hiroshima, which is a big city. So, you are safe. But if you are worried about it, you can get a "VPN" app which alters your IP address so that no one can track where you are actually located. So for example, a VPN can make your computer look like it's located in China or some other country! I use a free VPN called "TunnelBear". Do a search for it if you would like more information about it. There are other similar free VPN apps too.


Later....

Weird? Yes.
Something new? No.

This weird property of water has been known since the early days when Algodoo was first released (around 2009). The software developer knew about it and decided that it wasn't a high priority to fix it. Therefore, 10 years later, it's still weird!

hiltropper -- Fascinating scene!

I first learned about colliding objects computing Pi a few years ago when I watched a YouTube video that explained the phenomenon with Billiard balls. There are other unbelievable ways to compute Pi, such as by dropping a needle from above parallel straight lines on paper (Search for "Buffon's Needle" on YT). The dropped needle will land crossing a line versus landing in between two lines Pi times as many! These are just a couple of samples of why I think math and physics are so interesting and amazing.

By the way, I see that it's been a few years since you have posted scenes here on Algobox before this current one. Welcome back! I hope that you will stick around and post more interesting scenes like this one, and like the others that you have posted many years ago. You are very talented and smart!
