Topic: Multi way OR and AND blocks

There are a few instances where I want to apply an OR or AND test to multiple signals.  The available blocks for this only take 2 inputs, so to test 4 inputs I have to stack 3 of these blocks together.  This works fine, but I like to use the least number of blocks possible.  What I have done instead is to use the 8 way b2B block, followed by an equal to block.  This also seems works fine.

What I was wondering is which is the more efficient code for the Canny?  Am I actually making the Canny work harder by making my diagram look simpler?

Re: Multi way OR and AND blocks

Yes, since the use of a number of inputs of b2B block is more efficient than multiple AND/OR. We ourselves use this technique. In the near days we will add this and other tips-and-tricks to the English wiki.
