Digital Logic

I created a project named Digital Logic. Digital Logic can create any logic gates you want. You can use the Base namespace to create your own customized gates or inherit the ones I already implemented in Base.Gates namespace. For now, only a few gates were implemented but I will add more in the coming days. First, you'll need to have the DigitalLogic.cab. Extract the DLLs and save it in your working folder. Add the DLLs into your project references. Sample code: int main() {    AND andGate = new AND();   andGate.Input(1, true);   andGate.Input(2, false);   if(andGate.Output == false) MessageBox("Correct");   else MessageBox("Wrong");   return ; } You can download the files here Digital Logic Enjoy!
