This was a thought. Everyone knows computers work with switches and transistors, and logic gates and what not. I was thinking what if you replicated this on excel?

What I mean by this is using the equation functions in excel to get a certain value from a cell, and compute it using AND's OR's and NOT's to amke something, like an adding machine, the same way the proccessor does.

i was trying, but figured out how tedious it is to making an adding machine. Mostly because i keep forgetting to press enter before switching cells, and XOR's are a pain in the a**. Also, i think the circular reference in the RAM memory might not work...
