Tutorial

The applet consists of three parts: Design, Check and Turn-to-DNA. The first allows the user to enter inputs, whereas the second and third supply the user with information about his network. Below the different parts are described in detail.

1. Design a logic network

2. Check the logic network

The logic network designed in step 1 can now be verified.

Logical values are represented by colors (green = true, red = false). Thus a green box represents a devices (e.g. an AND-gate) with the logical value true, a red box a devices with the logical value false. The flow of logical value can be followed by following the colors along the edges between the boxes.

The logical value(s) of the input(s) can be manipulated by clicking the checkbox(es).

3. Turn the logic network into DNA
