That's wonderful news, Suzi! Yay!!!!!

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What is even happening?
Okay. Assume that I am a moron. What is a good, VERY SIMPLE book that would give me an introduction to binary code and how it works?
Whatever for? You did catch that Turing's already dead, right?

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
YAY Suzi! Money in the house and a DH out of it! Man, that's a double header.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
What do you mean by binary code? Just, converting numbers from base 10 to binary and back
Um. Well. I guess so?
I don't know what you mean by binary code.
Er. I don't know how else to describe it. The whole 0-1 dealio.

Thanks all. I'm not officially releasing the ~ma until he starts, cause there was that one job where he lasted less than 6 hours...but still...this appears to be a good one.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
Hil: why is a^p = a in Z sub p when p is prime? Also, if you divide f(x) by (x-a), why is the remainder always f(a)? It's sort of obvious why this is true for f(a)=0, but even when it isn't it's true, and I'm racking my brain as to why.
Steph, I don't know how much detail you need. There's lots of web sites, e.g. [link]
And of course I pretty much champ at the bit to explain anything mathy.

I do know what you mean by binary code.
(No, I don't. I just wanted to go for the true binary X-post.)
Um. Maybe I'm referring to it incorrectly. But since I don't know anything about it, I don't know how I should be referring to it. So far the mathiest people in this thread don't know what I mean, and I don't know how to articulate what I mean.
If you were explaining the binary....system (? is that a better term?) to a retarded 3-year-old lemur, how would you explain it???
Or, what's the story with all the 0s and 1s? How does it work? How does one count with only 0s and 1s? How is that used in relation to computer programming? Or, *is* it used in relation to computer programming? How do a bunch of 0s and 1s make my iTunes work?
