It mean that one needs to be sure that they can 'handle' the information, situation, etc. that they are requesting. Another expression (translated) that is similar is: "Don't go begging for butter unless you bring your own dish." (Finnish) This one implies that the requester may not have a place (brain?) to put/process the answer they may receive.

How does a half adder work?

A full adder has three inputs - A, B, and CarryIn from the prior stage. It generates a Result and a Carryout with the truth table... ABC-RC 000-00 001-10 010-10 011-01 100-10 101-01 110-01 111-11 The adder can be a ripple adder, in which the propogation delay depends on the carry "rippling" through the logic, or it can be a look-ahead-carry type, which has constant propagation delay time, at the expense of more logic.


What gate can be used to constructed full adder?

A full adder can be constructed using basic logic gates: XOR, AND, and OR gates. Specifically, two XOR gates are used to calculate the sum, while two AND gates and one OR gate are employed to determine the carry-out. The first XOR gate takes the two input bits, and the second XOR gate incorporates the carry-in. The AND gates handle the carry generation, with the OR gate combining the outputs to produce the final carry-out.
