Binary

September 7, 2005 on 9:26 am | In Computing, School |

Today’s Embedded Applications theory lessons were about how a computer calculates.

Nothing too new but still quite interesting. For example, I didn’t know that you could convert a decimal number to binary by just doing <decimal> modulo 2, then dividing <decimal> by 2, and then loop that, prefixing the new answer before the old one(s), until <decimal> is 0

Interesting.
