Compact UNSIGNED and SIGNED LESS

By Cestode

I got stuck at the SIGN LESS level so I decided to write a guide, maybe it will be useful to someone. Because I did not find the same short solutions to SIGN LESS in other guides (maybe I searched badly). The solution was found in the comments on an unpopular video on YouTube and I figured out how to recreate it in the game and I want to share it with you!

As soon as I completed the unsigned component, the signed one was easy because all I did was to swap the most Significant bits with each other. But I'm still disappointed at my solution, and I can't even remember what my solution was. I am working through all the puzzles to find the best scores, can't wait till I reach these two.

Honestly, I didn’t fully figure out how the SIGNED LESS circuit works myself — I just followed a solution from a YouTube comment description 😅

I'm just now barely able to piece it together, for me the unsigned one makes lots of sense, (not that I found it myself without having it casually mentioned, I TOTALLY FORGOT HOW TO USE THE BYTE NOT PROPERLY) but the signed one working on the same principles was hard to understand. For me I negated the second one, and then added and determined if the result was negative. And then implemented a couple of exceptions for if either was equal to -128, or if the top was negative and the bottom wasn't. Not too much of a hassle, but not clean.

It's that simple? It took me 3 days to solve this component. I used 109 gates
