  +1 Peter Norvig's class. His approach is totally fascinating and the way he effortlessly translates common-thinking and logic into a program is pure magic to me. Highly recommend it and also checkout his notebooks, unparalleled beauty: https://github.com/norvig/pytudes

• MIPS

  1 74 2.5 Verilog

  A classic 5-stage pipeline MIPS 32-bit processor, including a 2-bit branch predictor, a branch prediction buffer and a direct-mapped cache. (by valar1234)

  You might also find it interesting to implement a CPU on an fpga, for me it helped soldify exactly how a cpu works. In uni we had to do this for MIPS architecture with 5 state pipeline, was very interesting. It was very similar to this https://github.com/valar1234/MIPS we also used the same book “ Computer Organization and Design”
