Ruby

NAND2Tetris Learning Partner

Hey, a while ago I started an awesome project from Harvard University called NAND2Tetris.

In Hardware Description Language I built my 8-bit computer. In Python I wrote the Assembler and the "bottom half" of the virtual machine translator. I then got stuck, went off and learnt object-orientation, then came back and re-wrote the assembler in Python with OO.

I'd like to pick this project up as an exercise for my Ruby, ending up with being able to play Tetris in a browser running on Rails on the my OS, through my VM, on "my" hardware.

I would like a learning partner to share ideas, sob-stories, etc. We could discussion on Skype every week or so.

This is a fundamental, challenging and highly rewarding challenge. Whose up for it?

I've had the course's book in my reading wishlist for a while. I didn't know there was an actual course that used the book. Thanks for sharing this resource. I've got too many goals on my plate to join in on your project but I hope someone else joins you in the journey.

Thanks for the reply JT. Interestingly I'm the opposite - doing the course but didn't realise there was an actual book!
