There are only 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don’t.
Lol.
That is too funny!
I always write that joke on the board when I'm going to be teaching the binary system to a class. Hopefully, by the end of the class, they get the joke :-)
The genius who figured out binary numbers (just 0 and 1) can be used to represent any letters or any high numeric value was a genius, and that made computers possible. Your hard drive has only 0’s and 1’s on it and nothing else! That is the easiest method of recording data since all it needs is either a charge or no charge.
That discovery is on same par as the genius from India who invented number zero. Before zero, the Roman numeral system was in use...very cumbersome for large numbers.
