Seriously... it says somethin...


John's right, it does say something. Don't try to translate it though. I made it up and it may say something really offensive. If need arise I can sit down and really write something. Hopefully need won't arise.

I promise it's not bad either... it's something you might say around this time of year (Valentine's Day).

Google is helpful in translating John's, but as far as the binary code goes I'm at a loss. I have a friend who is a software programmer...I'll have to ask her.

sad Dont think an old card punch card will help on that binery code one will it?
I got the first one, but stumped now

I can remember enough about some of my old digital electronics courses to know that it can get pretty involved. Even numbers can be complex. Here's a short primer on number coding.

The Binary Number Code is based on the idea of doubling the value of regular numbers:
1+1=2, 2+2=4, 4+4=8, and so on.

The doubled numbers are then arranged from right to left... 8 4 2 1.
To write the code number for "1," put a 1 under the 1. Then write Os under the 2, the 4, and the 8.
8 4 2 1
0 0 0 1

To write the code number for "2," put a 1 under the 2. Then write Os under the 1, the 4, and the 8.

8 4 2 1
0 0 1 0

To write the code number for "3," put a 1 under the 2 and another 1 under the 1. Then write Os under the 4 and the 8.

2+1=3, so

8 4 2 1
0 0 1 1

3 = 0011

To write "4" put a 1 under the 4. Then Write Os under the 1, the 2, and the 8.

8 4 2 1
0 1 0 0

To make a number in the Binary Number Code you put the number 1 under the numbers that add up to that number.

To write "5," put a 1 under the 4 and another 1 under the 1. Then, write Os under the 2 and the 8. 4+1=5, so 5=

8 4 2 1
0 1 0 1

At "16," you need to add another place to the left.

16 8 4 2 1
1 0 0 0 0

With five places, you can write all the code numbers from "16" through "31.

At "32," add another place on the left.


And on and on infinitum.

LOL, my company digital electronics course had us learning all sorts of binary code and how to wire gates. Then in the next sentence, they said,"Of course you can also get an IC circuit to do the same thing, but this may be useful." I'm still waiting to use it. LOL

ha ha Bob, that brings back memories to me when i was learning my engineering course. The useless amount of maths we had to learn that really didn't have a relevance to what we were being trained in was unbelievable. But as it was part of our curriculum, then we had to do it. smilenod
