Gen. 38 (2005) 8935-8949) Kragen, do you see a computationally (=fewest amounts of gates) cheapest way of counting in Gray code that only does local (or as close to local) bit flips? -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE -- To unsubscribe: http://lists.canonical.org/mailman/listinfo/kragen-discuss
