5. Discussion
Electric helps to easily replicate  singular components and turn them in to 8 bit or even bigger components. One can observe all the steps in creating NOR or NAND logic and replicate with ease while verifying NCC and DRC. It can be for scene that these components will become important in for future large constructions.
