      Lol, I'm confusing myself.  :-[

      I'm sure Google and Wikipedia have a lot to say.

        should 11=4 since its based 2 ?  It just seems logical to me.  I understand a little better at any chance so 101 is six?
      101 = 6 (look at my link for number 5)

      1 = 1
      10 = 2
      11 = 3

      go from right to left adding 2 to the power of the position to a running total. This wil give you the decimal equivalent.




      Thats what I'm looking for, however someone with more math understanding then I can say its easy.  should 11=4 since its based 2 ?  It just seems logical to me.  I understand a little better at any chance so 101 is six?

      the ones place is power 0, that is, 1 binary is still 1 decimal.

      Now we're getting Somewhere- 11 in binary is 3 decimal, because we have 2 to the power of 1 + 2 to the power of 0. with is 2 and 1 (any number to the power of 0 is 1) respectively.


      personally I've just done the power method myself- important thing I should have mentioned was starting at 0 for the exponent.

      so 101 binary is

      2^0+2^2, or, 1+4, or 5.


      I hope this makes sense....

      in both base 10, and base 2 (binary) the place of the digit matters, and it works like this

      base 10

      1000's     100's  10's  1's
         5        3      2    4

      That number is 5 x 1000, 3 x 100, 2 x 10, and 4 x 1.

      Binary is the same idea only you go up in powers of 2 not 10

      128's   64's  32's  16's   8's 4's 2's 1's
        1      0     1     1     0   1   1   1

      That number equals 1 x 128 plus 1 x 32 plus 1 x 16 plus 1 x 4 plus 1 x 2 plus 1 x 1.

      Squall, can you work it out?

        I hate to tell you but 2+2+2+0 isnt 5

          how can that be??????  Five is zero unless its valued at one.  Its ether on or off so which is it?  Cause this up arrow means that there being added to me.

          All I can suggest - in hopes things clarify - is once again go check my page on bin and hex!

          Seems an interpretation problem here! :)

              so multiply?  that explains why my answer is wrong.

              2^2 means "two raised to the power of two".
