on video Visualizing Binary Data with 7-Segment Displays


 Displaying numbers is trickier than I expected! In this video we explore how to visualize the data inside of our simulated 4-bit registers, with the help of the double dabble algorithm and some seven segment displays.


Simulations program:
I've been completely rewriting the simulation program, and I still need to fix some bugs, add some UI etc. I'll add a link here soon when it's ready. For now, if you'd like to experiment with the simulation,
