 +===== Analysis of Our Plan =====
 +We stated that building an SR latch was a yellow "​intermediate"​ goal, and we're happy to have accomplished this. We did investigate doing other digital logic with vacuum tubes. We found a source called [[http://​www.quadibloc.com/​comp/​cp01.htm|What Computers are Made From]] that has two schematics: a tube NOR gate shown as two triodes with their plates tied together, and a tube NAND gate that is shown as a pentode with the top and bottom grids attached to the inputs. ​
