Learn Binary 101

[njm1112]

my dad taught me binary (best dad ever!)

and when my math teacher asked me how old i was i held up 4 fingers

he was inpress that a 4yr old was in his class :P

1111 = 15 (my age)

[ThePstewart1]

this totally helped me..

Learn Binary 101?

Hah! I get it! xD

[musicis4evarrr]

Simple and perfect!

[SmartAlecz]

when i use a converter, its more, here is five, 001101010000110100001010, y is that, also how do u use a space

[unknownuser09PS3]

@SmartAlecz 5=00110101

5

=001101010000110100001010 (With a Linebreak after the 5)

[gatoo23]

@unknownuser09PS3 110 101 ?

[lunaleaf]

How do you turn it into letters?

[Spraypoint3495]

i though it was from left to right. does it make a difference?

[MagoFerret4]

@Spraypoint3495 Definitely! Think about our normal number system (base 10). Though you may not realize it, it is read from right to left as well, with the digit furthest to the right being its coefficient multiplied by 10^0 (aka 1). The next digit (the tens place) is its respective coefficient multiplied by 10^1, and so on. Knowing this, would it make any sense to read our number system (or any number system of any base) from left to right? Thanks for the question!

[DerekkAlexander]

Sooooo... "Learn Binary 5"?

[MagoFerret4]

@DerekkAlexander I'm surprised no one's said that yet, but you ARE correct!

[igormaiarj]

Not not not be avised the code 101 00001 011 100001 is a code UFO E.T

[mrreggin1]

@nugget141000 how did u learn those?

[unknownuser09PS3]

@nugget141000

Binary

Hex

Base64

ASCII

???

[thisisacunt]

you made it sound hard went to fast

[79ashna]

thanks you taught this well. i understood this and understood it well.

[Thet3]

Thanks!!

[VBAlien]

Learn Binary 5. TeeHee

[feuchster]

Are you the guy who built a simple computer in minecraft?

[BLITZ0891]

Thanx a lot man! First time learning binary and ima a computer science major but really never used it till now.

[1sweettime]

That helped me..

Tnx a lot..

easy to learn...

God bless u

[gw4621]

Finally got it THANKS!

[Trogdor8freebird]

Thank you, all of the other videos I found seemed complicated, this is actually very easy to understand.

[Isaacljw42]

How about binary to letters? Can you make a vid about that?

[MagoFerret4]

@Isaacljw42 I don't see why not! I'm fairly busy at the moment, but come Thanksgiving I should have some time to spare for making videos.

If you'd like to research binary to text, trying searching for ASCII to binary.



[Isaacljw42]

@MagoFerret4 I did, and i figured it out. You just need to know that the numbers for capital letters are 65-90 and lower case is 97-122 and you figure out the binary for that number, and it is that letter.

[blades199]

@Isaacljw42 well you just pick the letter you want to put, C for example, and the number of... A is 1//B is 2,//C is 3//D is 4, etc. C is 3, so you convert 3 to binary which is 11

then you pick if you want it to be a capital C or a lowercase c. lowercase starts with 011 and capital starts with 010. I'll do capital. so it would start with 010- now you take 11 and add zeroes to the beginning until it has 5 digits. so it would be 00011

then you just put 010 and 00011 together to get binary.

[Isaacljw42]

@blades199 Dude. That's not right...

[blades199]

@Isaacljw42 11001 = 16+8+0+0+1....25

[Isaacljw42]

@blades199 A does not equal one in binary, dude. I just do it the normal, and also easier way.

[blades199]

@Isaacljw42 what would that be?

[Isaacljw42]

@blades199 Incorrect binary..

[casperes0912]

@Isaacljw42 65 = A

[SIXstDEVIL]

omg this was amazing. I tried to read it for 1/2 a year mean while i just saw this video and in 5 minutes i learned it :D

[ousdre12]

Thank for tutorial it's been very helpful but there is a mistake on the part 1 1 0 0 1 =24

16 8 4 2 1

[blades199]

@ousdre12 11001 = 25.... 16 + 8 = 24...now add one to that and its 25

[theAPgirl0427]

Thanks, I've been told how to a lot but there was always a little confusion but this was put pretty simple. I can do my paper now!! Yay! lol

[Oaklio]

Thanks man.

[dialgoraxx]

I don't get about ternary, it's even harder than binary. Could you do a tutorial about ternary?

[MagoFerret4]

@dialgoraxx Think of ternary as identical to binary, with the only differences being the power involved and digits used. Simply put, binary uses powers of two and the digits 0 and 1, while ternary involves powers of three and uses the digits 0, 1 and 2. Here's an example of how ternary works:

Number 1 in Ternary = 1.

Number 2 in Ternary = 2.

Number 3 in Ternary = 10.

Number 4 in Ternary = 11.

Number 5 in Ternary = 12.

Number 6 in Ternary = 20.

Ect....

Thanks for the tutorial idea!

[dialgoraxx]

@MagoFerret4 thanks!

[bassinvada]

Excellent video, very easy to understand.

[ccarriere357]

This was very helpful. Thanks for the video.

[MuzixVidz]

best binary tutorial on youtube. seriously no other video explained it efficientey! thanx

[Ashtree]

This video actually explained things better than any book I've read or video I've seen!

lol jk ;) good tut

[Smithyj990]

Thanks a lot mate your way of explaining it was great learnt it straight away.

Hell a lot better than my phyics teacher.

[ceereec]

How is 2 to the 0 power equal to 1? (as explained at 52 seconds in this clip)

[MagoFerret4]

Here's a little math for you:

Take 2 to the power of 3 for example:

2^3 = 8

Divide that by 2. You get 2^2 = 4.

Divide that by 2. You get 2^1 = 2.

Divide that by 2. You get 2^0 = 1.

And there you have it! If you follow this method, it also explains why 2^-1 = 1/2.

Hope this helped!

Hope this helped!

[year2kill2010]

Thank u for this video, i took 1 entire year of digital electronics and i remember my teacher showing us this and making it more complicated than it was and i didnt understand it. I think this is used in computer programming or something im not sure but at least i can understand it now. Thanks again

[funlog2]

@MagoFerret4 any number to the zero power is one.

[Brandog132]

How come my i's keep ending up being e's ???

You have to love binary to ASCII!

[boobie284]

:) smiles....I want to learn to "REad binary" without calculating, All in Seeing it, 01= Capital, 0101=p-z and a-c-e-g-i-k-(by twos =1) and b-d-etc.= 0 at end and stuff.... :) I want to learn to narrow the letter down.... not needing to calculate XD!

[MagoFerret4]

Think about it this way: one letter equals 8 binary digits (a byte). To make a letter, find its place in the alphabet (a = 1, ect.). Then, to make it upper case, just add 010 to the front of the binary number. For lower case, add 011.

*When using this format, make sure that the number you're using to represent the letter is 5 digits long.

EX: A=1 = 00001

Upper case: 01000001

Lower case: 01100001

Ex) T = 20 = 10100

Upper case: 01010100

Lower case: 01110100

Should I make a video on this?

[boobie284]

:) thanks Your really helpful, I think you should, 'cuz well There are only a few video tutorials on this stuff, and this fact does come in handy in reading:) GL and TY

[MrPiples03]

I would learn from it just like I learned from this one!Thanks for the video!

[Angelfirebeat]

@MagoFerret4

Yes pls make a video :) thank you!

[rcjexenove]

@MagoFerret4 ofcource that sound really interesting

[NytrixOctane]

@MagoFerret4 yes that would be helpful

[onemanarmy675]

whats that mean?

[azzurriish]

that's very prilliant...nice job man... i like it..(Y)

[ernestonnla]

Thank you for this video. It has been the best I've seen regardnig binary.

[jeryj55]

I dont get it =/

5* though :)

[Tyrtle12]

**how do the binary numbers translate into text (i.e. words)?

[MarcusHahnemann]

Very helpful

[CamboRocker]

Finally i get it!!!!! you're the best all i used to know was word binary but now that i know number binary i am a computer!

[southkid987]

yea yea, but how do you make a program using binary code??/

[MagoFerret4]

What you're probably talking about is Machine Code, which is not covered in this tutorial.

If you want to program, I would recommend starting on C++, DOS (for windows users), or HTML (for web based applications).

kool i thought it was a made up thing from the matrix games :D, now i know what it really is thank you Magoferret4

[roroshor]

Great video. Never knew binary before but after this video once I now have a clear grasp of it. Thanks!

[Klihn]

Hey thanks dude. I had learned Binary a while back, but sorta forgot from not using it for a while. Thanks for making a video on this!
