Gottfried Leibniz 8 months ago

Leave it to a German to be bored enough with math in the 16oo’s to invent a system of numbers to represent more numbers. I guess that’s why it’s a code….so give him a hand for confusing me enough to want to learn the system. Thanks, Dr. Leibniz, you’ve really made my day!



Binary. 9 months ago

Binary is sooo frickin easy!

It seriously only took about five minues to learn.

I was searching on websites and they were talking about some kind of base system… and I didn’t know wtf that meant… and Elvis has a better chance at coming back to life than I do at ever passing a math class…

then I found a video and it was a snap!

I feel so smart right now, I can’t even explain.
lol
Sometimes, I have a little trouble just dividing some numbers (I am not that smart at all, I tells ya lol), and you can forget about Geometry…

so I feel like I just crossed a milestone here.

Anyway, I’m going to spell my name.
: )

01001010 01101001 01101100 01101100 01101001 01100001 01101110

lol

Reading binary is so much easier. You just add all of the 1s under 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2 and 1.
If they all add up to the number that matches the letter, then you’re correct for that letter.
And if you’ve messed up somewhere trying to find the code for a letter, you will have a number left over, so that’s the trick the guy in the video said.

My dad is going to be really proud.
He’s really smart at math.
He could be a professor if he wanted to.

Woo hoo!

I learned binary many years ago. 13 months ago

When people hear binary they usually think of the numeral
system or machine code for computers.

However,there’s far more to it than that. I think
everything on the planet. It’s used to represent numbers
colors and anything else you can imagine.
We have light/darkness,up/down,right/left,male/female
good/bad,friend/foe,etc

Here is an example of binary applied to colors.
THe three primary colors of light are red,green,
and blue.

000
001
010
011
100
101
110
111

Do you see how it works? The bits represent colors
being on or off instead of numbers.



Wow! 13 months ago

It’s a lot easier than I thought it would be! I should make a binary clock in JavaScript to put on my desktop!

How can learn binary

binary is a way that computers read are data. But there are times we will have to use binary in networking. so we can make a network.



i wanna learn what "BINARY FILES" are!!!!!!@%@!!!!!!!! 17 months ago

Im comfused of what “BINARY FILES” are because i don’t fully understand what it is but im intrested in learn this project!!!!



I'm 14 ( or should i say (0011)1110) and i could learn it! you can too! 18 months ago

it’s not too bad, if you use a cross between the comment on this page with the wristwatch hyperlink and www.freewebs.com/binary101/

you can learn both numbers and letters with it, once you get the hang of it. here’s the alphabet in binary;

a 00001
b 00010
c 00011
d 00100
e 00101
f 00110
g 00111
h 01000
i 01001
j 01010
k 01011
l 01100
m 01101
n 01110
o 01111
p 10000
q 10001
r 10010
s 10011
t 10100
u 10101
v 10110
w 10111
x 11000
y 11001
z 11010

if you’re still having trouble with the alphabet, think of the binary as counting upwards through every number that is only ones and zeros.

and with numbers, you break it down into a sequence of numbers;
1
2
4
8
16
32
64
128
You keep doubling depending on how large the original number is.
say you had to translate the number 149 into binary, here’s how;

149

1 128 149 – 128 = 21
0 64
0 32
1 16 21 – 16 = 5
0 8
1 4 5 – 4 = 1
0 2
1 1 1 – 1 = 0

put a 1 in the left-hand column if you use that part of the seqence that is in the row, and once you hit zero in the sum column, you’ll have your binary code in the left-hand column;

10010101

One last thing

whether you are writing a number or a letter in binary, you should use the right prefix.

when writing numbers, put 0011 in front of the number (each collective number, e.g. if you’re writing three hundred and twenty one use 0011[three hundred and twenty one] not 0011[three] 0011[two] 0011[one]

when writing capital letters, put 010 in front of every letter

when writing lowercase letters, put 011 in front of every letter

Now, i’ve given you much more than a head-start. it should give you a pretty good base for learning binary
