Who doesn't love Trent...

Daria - I wasn't expecting you for a couple of hours.
Trent - I came straight from rehearsal. We ran late, or early... whatever.

Trent - All right, second verse. It's my personal hell, where I roast in my shell...
Jesse - Roast in my shell?
Trent - Aw, man, I can't think straight till I get those peanuts.

The final question of the paper the question on the logic gates, I could do the truth tables fine, but I couldn't remember the purpose of them, so I dribbled crap about flip flops and carry ins and stuff like that, however I know I least got half the available marks for that question as I am pretty sure the truth tables are correct.

I put down it was AND and OR.... What did ppl get for the purposes?

Was I right in saying AND multiplies 2 binary values and OR adds them?

Hardware was like 100 times easier then evolution, imo.

My class did evo as a option ( cause my teacher is stupid) so i decided to scrap it and do hardware instead. turned out to be one of the greatest decisions throughout the whole hsc as people from my class came out thinking WTF while all i had to do was simple math and simple circuit boards.

I wrote major bs for the printer article thing, i wrote that there are buttons for bold and font size and italics and stuff cause without em you cant properly imitate the article
