Not gate with Nand gate

[thenar]

Hey ive been having some trouble trying to do a not gate with a nand gate i have gotten all of the other gates except and but not is giving me some trouble if you could help me solve this problem that would be fantastic.

I'll give you a hint: you can build this with just one NAND gate.

[thenar]

I know it only requires one Nand gate but this is my code

Nand (a = in, b = in, out = notin);

if you see the problem it would be great if you could help me

You're so close!

What do you think should be wired to the 'out' output of Not?

[thenar]

Im not sure nota maybe?

[ewh]

Take a closer look at Appendix A.  Specifically take a look at sections A.1, A.4, and A.5.  These sections should clarify how to wire the chip's input pins to internal parts, and wire the outputs of the internal parts to the chip's output pin.

oh my god i finally got it thank you all so much

[oborob]

is this for applying computer related principles
or for guessing some supposedly obvious
syntax, perhaps your private rite of initiation?

@oborob: I'm confused, what exactly are you asking? If you've read the book through chapter 1, and the appendix, solving Not should be easy once you understand the concepts presented in the reading.
