PLEASE READ ALL: This simple project can convert any number between 0 and 255 into an 8-digit binary code. And no, this isn't just a long list that has all the codes, it works the binary out for itself! How does binary work? Binary is surprisingly simple. From RIGHT to LEFT, imagine each number is worth double of the last, starting from 1. So, again from RIGHT to LEFT, the numbers are worth: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128. So, what does this mean? I'll show an example then explain - let's do an easy one. 5. 5 in binary is 00000101. So, from RIGHT to LEFT the numbers that are a '1' are worth 1 and 4. 1+4=5. Let's try a harder one: 143. 143 in binary is 10001111. From RIGHT to LEFT the numbers (that are 1) are worth 1, 2, 4, 8 and 128. 1+2+4+8+128=143. I hope this explanation was clear and that you now understand binary! Comment if you want to see a binary to number converter (the opposite of this), or a letter to binary converter, OR even a binary to letter converter!
