Chapter 2561 Ascending ring and descending ring calculator

Soon, Xia Duo's consciousness turned back to the North Pole again, and then took out the freshly baked [Element Scanning] magic weapon from the consciousness-based portable space.

But this time, he didn't put all his attention on the North Pole, but only gave a bottom line to cast spells, and the rest remained in the body, which is equivalent to dual-purpose.

The main reason is that with the auxiliary tools this time, the North Pole does not need to maintain too much attention. He can free up his attention so that he can do other things, such as——

magic computer.

At present, Xia Duo has made some real objects of basic computing units, but now there is a huge problem in front of him, that is - how to avoid the magic effect produced by the magic computer from interfering with the computer itself!
If it’s just the basic computing unit, you don’t need to worry about it. After all, it’s just the [basic] computing unit, and the magic effects it can produce are very limited. Even if you ignore it completely, it won’t have any obvious impact on the current experiment.

But this problem will have to be solved sooner or later in the future, and it will become more serious as the size of the magical computer structure grows, so Xia Duo is more inclined to plan to solve it from the beginning.

So he is now planning to start research in this area with a small project, and this small project is also to accumulate experience for the development of more complex computers in the future.

What he chose was - [Ascending Ring, Descending Ring Calculator].

The current prospects for application are apprenticeship exams, independent research labs' ring-ascending and descending calculations, and it can also be used to improve the tower of time's upgrade and upgrade system. In short, even in the short term, there is huge room for application.

Of course, when this computer is developed, the apprenticeship exam will definitely not be used. This is like Xia Duo was not allowed to use a calculator in the middle school exam when he was in school.

Because it is generally believed that college students already have basic computing skills, using a calculator can save time, and middle school does not allow it because middle school is the stage of laying the foundation, which of course also includes basic computing skills.

……

With regard to the [Ascending Ring, Descending Ring Calculator], Xia Duo had conceived and even designed it earlier. Considering the principle alone, this is not a complicated problem, and it can even be said to be very simple.

After all, it has been several years since I entered the society to promote the [Ascension Ring Trial], even the apprentices who have just entered the second grade are not too unfamiliar with the principles of this aspect.

The difficulty lies in how to realize it and how to make it into a stereotyped calculator. This is an engineering problem. If it is another Nether mage, it may be difficult to think of a solution.

But Xia Duo has learned the principles of computers. Although he can't copy them directly, the ideas can still be applied to them.

In the simplest way, if you want to implement a calculator, at least you need to solve the input and output problems, as well as the core calculation module.

Among them, most of what Xia Da solved was the calculation module, and the rest of the input and output, if you don't pay attention, you can even use the method of directly operating the calculation module without any additional interaction methods, similar to dialing an abacus.

It is currently in the experimental stage, so there is really no need to be too particular. Xia Duo only plans to use the magic net to make a few open interfaces, that is, the strings of the magic net.

In terms of output, since any element change can be regarded as a spell effect, this is actually an alternative display.

Of course, in order to know the calculation results more intuitively, Xia Duo decided to connect some closed magic net strings for demonstration. This output method is closer to the binary results read by computers on the earth.

If you want to be so intuitive that ordinary people can see it with your naked eyes, you need to add an additional projection display function. Xia Duo will not consider this experiment for the time being, and may not consider this in the future.

After all, the magic computer is largely made for the caster to use, and it is intuitive enough to express it with the string of the magic net.

There is another reason for not using the magic effect to express it, and that is the key to the magic computer or the long-term stable operation of the calculator——

Transform all calculation-induced magic effects into more standard and easier-to-control element release effects.

As for the core calculation module, Xia Duo has already completed more than half of the design. Now, for the first experiment, you only need to take out the double-string 5-ring calculation unit.

The complete ascending and descending ring calculator can calculate up to sixteen strings and 11 rings, that is, the complete ascending and descending ring calculation of no more than sixteen elements.

Of course, a calculator of this level (11-[-]) is not enough to complete the calculation of lifting rings for all spells, but most of them can be applied through decomposition calculations.

To some extent, it can be regarded as the completeness of the magic calculator in the field of lifting ring calculations.

It should be noted that a real magic computer needs to be complete on all computable problems, not just in the field of ascending ring computing.

So Xia Duo will only call what he is going to do now [calculator], not [computer].

The double-chord and 5-ring calculator can be regarded as a castrated version of the castrated version, but it is still no problem to calculate some simple problems. As for this experiment, it is a good choice to start to find the problem with a calculator of this level.

On the one hand, it is indeed a qualified calculator. On the other hand, it is small in size and low in cost, so it can be very conveniently used for experiments.

……

inside the laboratory.

Xia Duo continuously extracts the arcane strings to weave the core calculation components of the lifting ring calculator.

After a while, in the suspended field in the center of the laboratory that is normally used to make Mythra, a book-sized double-layer network structure composed of dozens of blue silk threads appeared in front of Xia Duo.

Afterwards, he connected this structure to the magic net, and only after the first link was made, more than half of the entire structure was assimilated by the magic net in an instant.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo couldn't help being a little dumbfounded, and felt a little lucky after being stunned for a moment:

"Fortunately, I chose a small calculator for the first time!"

If it is the first time to choose a large-scale calculator, it takes a long time to complete most of the structures, and as soon as it is connected to the magic net, most of it will be assimilated, how depressing it will be!
"Why is this so?"

After thinking for a moment, Xia Duo showed an expression of sudden realization. It turned out that he had been using the magic calculator to make magic items on the spot. In fact, this thing is not a magic item in the strict sense.

In other words, it is not the types of magic items that existed in the past, but a brand new existence - a special device that uses the energy of the magic net to operate its essence to achieve a specific purpose.

In fact, those arcane energy strings in the calculation components of the calculator are still materials in essence, and have not been transformed into definite energy-guiding components that can reflect the operation rules of the magic net energy.

And the arcane string is very close to the string of the magic net in essence, if it is not well preserved, it will be easily assimilated by the magic net, let alone actively connected to the magic net.

Of course, to solve this problem, it is actually very simple, just change a material.
