And they would be square, with rounded corners.

Only 3 sides rounded...we dare to be different!

Not square. Triangular. Triangular tires have one less bump per revolution.

"were", not "was"... 
Unless, of course, things changed and Tesla became Apple and then 'unbecame' Apple, of which, it'd be unbecoming of Tesla to dare consider becoming Apple.

No, Tesla is a single entity, so it is singular 'was' not plural 'were'. 
(And dont try to pass of some BS about the subjunctive tense in English, it doesnt exist.  )

So you're implying then that there is no such thing as the volitional subjunctive in the English language?

Yes.
In other languages there is a distinct tense for subjunctive, such as French. In fact there are four in French. These are dedicated verb forms. They are special and specific.
In English the best we can achieve is a mood, a suggestion. We dont have distinct verb forms. What you suggest, the use of the plural form as a subjunctive for the singular, is a hack. It smacks of 18th century elocution, the same people who said you cant split an infinitive, and that hanged and hung have specific applications (they dont, they are just strong and weak forms of the past tense, like weaved and wove, dived and dove).
That is why I say it doesnt exist in English.

Ternary-dozenal calculator no zeros - Pastebin.com[^]
So I'm just lounging around and I figured I'd share what I'm working on with all of you.
The above link is a super efficient and low-profile batch file that can do dozenal (twelve base) math. It looks at all numbers as FOUR groups of THREES. So it's a ternary calculator in a way. As of now it only adds 2 single digit numbers. I'll add more digits to each number later. However, it does not use the CPU's hardware arithmetic. It's done 100% in software, hence the need for more lines of code as you can see. I made this batch file to test a hardware design I'm working on.
The key number pin-out and associations take up quite a bit of space, but the math logic itself is under 30 lines of code I think. The idea is that each line of code for the math logic sections of the file would equate to roughly 27-30 transistors. I believe I can get it down to 24. However, if this logical system was made with HARDWARE, the cost of build/cost per hour efficiency would be ridiculous. Full adders generally use 85 transistors just to add 15 + 15 = 30. Mine can count to 23 (24 with normal counting) and it will (eventually) use a mere 24 transistors.
The calculator does not use zeros. Read the instructions in the batch to figure out how it actually does math.
Anyways, i would like to spread my ideas about this. I think this can change the future of computer hardware as well as programming. Simplified binary logic could really be a game changer. I am now in the process of programming a simple assembly coded operating system using TERNARY TREE logic. But not just for searches, for everything the OS will do. What do you think?
Any questions or suggestions would be much appreciated.

This isn't really the best place to put this - the Lounge can move pretty quickly and a post like this can get scrolled into obscurity very soon.
I'd suggest you write it up as a Tip - with a download ZIP of the source - as they last longer and are easier to find. Each tip has it's own forum for discussions so it can carry multiple conversations better as well.
Submit a new Article or Tip[^]
Me? I don't use or think in base twelve (I'm not from Norfolk) so I don't really see the point of the calculator myself!

Personally I'd like you to explain the whys.
What's the uses of a dozenal calculator?
For what do you use a ternary tree?
And so on...
|
|
|
|
|
It's easier to perform arithmetic, logical functions. Why ternary trees? Well I used ternary logic in my calculator, that's why the code base isn't too large. It simplifies thing. If you just try to look at the batch file you'll see the benefits yourself.
|
|
|
|
|
Why not show the proposed circuits? A weird batch file doesn't do much good.
BTW there's an 8T full-adder with some voltage degradation (for a CMOS process, but not using the standard complementary symmetric circuit).
|
|
|
|
|
that CMOS is partially analog. My idea is completely digital. For a binary system, 24 transistors would be the lowest you could go due to entropy.

a CMOS adder would be partially analog. I'm not doing analog, I'm doing just normal binary. The lowest amount of transistors you could have in a dozenal system is 24 transistors, because of entropy.

Rewrite this in C#, and post it as a Tip, or Article, here.

I meant your moderators. It's funny. I posted it in "tips" and guess what? A moderator says "This doesn't belong here it belongs it tips". He makes that comment on my pending post that WAS just posted in tips. There you go. I'm not feeling too welcome here and well, that's about it. Most people here know nothing of programming and your moderators are mainly AI bots.
Sooner or later there will be a gigantic purge of these bots internet-wide who condescend and gaslight every user they come in contact with.

Your defensive reply suggests you have no idea what a wonderful community and resource CodeProject is.
The moderators here, and the people who respond on the forums, are not bots ! They are almost all volunteers.
Everyone here strives to promote community, and to assist and enable quality technical content to flourish on this site.
You posted a strange, but interesting, idea in an inappropriate social forum; you linked to code in a batch-file format that is probably obscure to many programmers here.
I think you got a very warm welcome.
There's a Forum for article writing: [^] ... why not ask about your Tip there.
You have a choice: you can slink away feeling you are unjustly treated, or, you can spend a small amount of time learning what this site is, and how to use it.
