Hello guys! I am getting confused in drawing the circuit for a priority encoder. Because I saw some youtube videos and also on google , they all are drawing 4 to 2 priority encoder differently.These both are 4 to 2 priority encoders.

There are many ways of building a priority encoder using different logic gates. The particular technique will depend on polarity of the inputs, outputs and the technology employed. You should be able to design several other implications.
 
Here are three different examples of 8 input priority encoders.
