Post your age

Viper GTS - Are you referring to me? I am 32 and it was meant as a joke about my maturity. I still play video games, etc. I didn't think I was being insulting.

Base 2 Math 101

Base 2/Base 10

0 = 0
1 = 1
10 = 2
11 = 3
100 = 4
101 = 5
110 = 6
111 = 7
1000 = 8
1001 = 9
1010 = 10
1011 = 11
1100 = 12
1101 = 13
1110 = 14
1111 = 15
10000 = 16

Etc, etc, etc.

The 1's indicate a power of 2 (2^0, 2^1, 2^2, 2^3, 2^4, 2^5, etc.). Starting from the far right, the first place is worth 1, the second is worth 2, the third four, the fourth 8, etc.

And now for the test:

10110010 = ???

No, I wasn't referring to you. I was referring to the originator of this thread who was complaining about Evan reporting his age in base 2 (10000).

that seems a bit much, considering you should be fossilized by now

dammit, 178, i'm sure this time

Guess I'll stop being so sensitive.

10110010

From the far right:

0 = 0x1 = 0
1 = 1x2 = 2
0 = 0x4 = 0
0 = 0x8 = 0
1 = 1x16 = 16
1 = 1x32 = 32
0 = 0x64 = 0
1 = 1x128 = 128

Total: 2+16+32+128 = 178

think of it this way, each of the numbers represents a power of two. the power it represents increases by one from the left to the right. if a 1 is in that spot, that power of 2 is in the dex (our number system value) if its a 0, ignore it.

here is a representation of viper's number and what the numbers are worth

128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

1......0..1...1..0.0.1.0

128+32+16+2=178

If you are too lazy, use a binary converter.. But its good to know it by heart.
