Binary (full understanding in 10 min)

[SR20SSS]

i had no idea about binary numbers thank you i get it now!!

[Wykesidefruitmachine]

The 1 guy that disliked this was a 0.

[shanefitts21]

LOL!!! as soon as i saw 101 my first thought was 5. and then he started writing and i was like... oh yeah it IS 5. XD i keep forgeting i watch video's like this as refreshers.

[ABILLIONDOLLARS1ROFL]

"Dont look over here Yet".....loook lol

[destin325]

@ABILLIONDOLLARS1ROFL

hahah! thanks for the laugh!

[wmw0702]

@destin325 is that the quickest way of converting a decimal number to binary number or is there a shorter way?

[marcoiscoolies]

Man, thanks for explaining this, my teacher couldn't get this over to me for who knows how long, and I've just learnt it in 10 minutes.

[luna01010202]

my EE professor couldn't get this past me in a 75 min class and you did it 10..

[26bubly]

THANK YOU so much, you made this so easy to understand and this will help me A LOT. THANK YOU

[gettingwarmer]

Lemme get this strait.

Counting with binary= 0,1,10,11,100,101,110,111,1000­,1001,1010,

11011,1100,1101,1110,1111,1000­0,10001,

10010,10011,10100,10101,10111,­11000,

11001,11010,11011,11100,11101,­11110,

11111 etc...

Please correct me if im wrong!

[destin325]

@gettingwarmer from 0 to 1010 (0-10) you were spot on but then jumped to 11011 (27) and fro 1100 and on you were spot on again. Other than one typo'd (1) it looks like you got it!

[berlinmadchen86]

Thank you so much! I looked all over the web for information on binary number so I could understand it. You made perfect sense and were easy to follow. Thank you.

[destin325]

@berlinmadchen86 you are very much welcome. I'm glad it has helped

[LoneGamerz]

you sir are a god.

[Eton911]

your awesome

[giganitris]

im sorry about possibly ruining your day but binary is 8-bit and i thaught this would teach the operations of binary and how to use them in operating systems... math and science are the same but diffrent. though you nailed it dead on no mistake in converting and coding good job

[destin325]

@humanities

you might (probably are) right as in 09 it had been 5 years (now 8) years since I'd messed with binary words. We used them to determine logic gate function which was necessary for an engineering program but I ended up going a different route as calc II was rough and I honestly just got intimidated when looking down calc III, differential equations, and linear alg. Makes me want to break my notes out and check/refresh/go down memory lane.

[glamourkitten01]

Oh wow you just turned my light blub on! I got It it all just clicked instantlly! Thank goodness you made this video I was so lost without it! :)

[jpeppermint]

thanks so much you can't have done that better i fully understand now!

[greyguitar08]

OOOOHHH MYY! thank you so so much. i owe ya

[7saintsam]

@Destin325. Thanks for making my day with the tutorial. I release the blessing of the Lord onto you. Blessings for scaling higher heights in Jesus name. God bless you.

[digitalsephiroth]

By far the best explanation I've come across. Thanks for making it easy to understand :)

[bluliite]

So helpful :)

Curious about 2 to the 90th. 

[oozium1198]

1000101. I feel immature...

[mycowthedog]

Bwhahaha Binary ... 101

[Sl3dman]

Thank you so much!

[destin325]

@Sl3dman

you're welcome.

[tiberio135]

Man, you made something so simple....complicated as hell.

Just ADD.

[JohnKeegan727]

Dude, thank you, I looked at this other Binary video, and the dude was all "yeah, you can only ever have 8 bit's, it's impossible to have more that 8 bits, so the highest is always 128" and I did it his way, and it didn't make any sense. So I tried your video, 1110010111(2) became 919(10) Thank's dude! :D

[MousseTauChocolate]

Im wondering wether you can display a decimal number through different combinations of 1 and 0

[MarKissAZ]

Thanks for the video. It makes perfect sense now.

[TheTechieTube]

Finally i get it.. Thanks!

[Terareflection]

Hey, you'are an awesome person, you know that?

[destin325]

@Terareflection

hahahah. its youtube..iv seen a lot of silly/funny/irritating/lame/cr­eative and so on comments. I don't think iv have ever seen a comment that has made chuckle as hard as your comment. Thanks, that made my night.

[beefykid1]

Wow I'm just still a student in high school that doesn't really do much but this video really helped me understand. This is the first lesson I've seen about Binary and Decimal numbers and I already understand it. Thanks!

[Suicidal1nfant]

Thanks a lot! This really helped. I completely understand binary now

[Dynose]

100011001

[tcarmdfan]

101 can also equal lol = laugh out loud.

[believin13]

@tcarmdfan knuckle head u. heheheeee

[allcityny]

Brilliant!!! This is simple stupid!!

[destin325]

@allcityny

Most math, to me is alot like public speaking....people are terrified of it; however, if you really dig in and try to fully understand it.. it is pretty simple. Iv never been "good" at math, that was until i tried to just understand why i am learning it in the first place.

[XxkamuixX]

I thank you, You have explained this way better than my professor for Intro to computer Systems did. He just lazily said read the book. He should have said to check youtube because there are people here much smarter than the actual professors :), Thanks again, I feel enlightened.

[destin325]

@XxkamuixX

Thank you much for the kind words.

[maxoomen]

wow im really surprised how easy that was. good work

[TheTutorialHunters]

nice video

[imkindaDasH]

[djlnr0]

well done bro!! great video, saved me teaching someone

[destin325]

@djlnr0

thanks! glad it helped.

[missDogah]

thanks alot this is the best vedio to explain how to convert from binary to decimal and the opesit

هذا من اجمل واوضح المقاطع اللي تشرح لك كيفية انشاء الاعداد الثنائيه وتحويلها الى اعداد عشريه والعكس من عدد عشري الى عدد ثنائي شاهدت العديد من المقاطع لكن هذا هو المقطع الموفق لايصال الفكره بوضوح بالنسبه لي اتمنى من الجميع ان يستفيد منه وسارفعه على قناتي للفائده لجميع طلاب الجامعات والمدارس ومتخصصي الحاسب وكل مستفيدي المقطع

[Regretish]

thanks for the video!

[supernanababa]

awesome thanks!

[hifistyle1]

Excellent! You explained it much better than my course notes.

[TheSuperMagicTaco]

there are 10 types of people in this world people who understand binary and people who don't

[destin325]

@TheSuperMagicTaco

bawhahahaha! ima have to use that one. 101 star comment!

[Armand0008]

@TheSuperMagicTaco I finally decided to learn binary today and I figured this joke finally lol

[TheSuperMagicTaco]

@Armand0008 lol

[giganitris]

@TheSuperMagicTaco you got that off of a think geek t shirt

[TheSuperMagicTaco]

@giganitris No idea what you are talking about seriously

[Listn2CKY]

@TheSuperMagicTaco

That was f-ing quality.

[TheVonjoker]

by 5:19 i understood it perfectly



[destin325]

@TheVonjoker

How much experience have you had with binary in the past? I have considered remaking this video (since it is one of my most popular videos .. haha a whopping 12K views in 2 years) so as to make it shorter, more too the point, and without the added conversion from dec to bin to dec at the end.

[TheVonjoker]

@destin325 not a whole lot, me and a friend of mine have tried to use it as a code for notes we past in class but didnt really get the hang of it.

[LCaaroe]

@destin325 I think you could cut out the subtractions. I dare say they are quite obvious to much viewers if you just say them. No need to write them down, imo.

[chumfriend1]

i like it so much as i was so confused before watching this video thanks

[Jacobo1995]

PERFECT VIDEO NOW I CAN PASS MY TEST TOMORROW!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

[MrMichael510]

Great video mate, really grate keep it up ;)

[StingerSplash007]

Great intro video... If only the midterm i have coming up in a week was one this stuff alone...

[iLiekpie123123]

wow, didn't even need half, great video!

[iffatanwar1]

you are an excellent teacher, thankyou.

[cyberspace17]

can you tell me how to change trinary to hexidecimal?

[safteypie]

Thanks for the vid I'm just starting my gcse and I chose computing so learning this now is really helpful, also for a 16bit code would you just keep doubling 16 times ?

[L3G3NDARYK1LL3R]

This is a great video to show people like me how to use a bit of binary. I'm curious how do I do letters?

[destin325]

@L3G3NDARYK1LL3R

Im not really sure what you mean by doing letters?

[L3G3NDARYK1LL3R]

@destin325 I've heard you can convert 101010100011100101(just an example) into a sequence of letters as well as a sequence of numbers, is this true?

[destin325]

@L3G3NDARYK1LL3R

its true but (sort of) binary does not directly translate into letters. You can easily make up your own or use others guides for encoding but 0001 = 1 ...it does not necessarily mean that 0001 = A

binary is typically used for systems to trigger gates "ON" or "off" (on=1 off=0) look up "or, and, nand, xor, nor" gates and you'll see why binary (1=on 0=off) makes perfect sense.

[Gakknor2]

@L3G3NDARYK1LL3R - 1010 1010 0011 1001 Can be converted yes. This is called Hexadecimal form. 1010 = A, 1010 = A, 0011 = 3, 1001 = 9; Result: AA39.

[destin325]

@L3G3NDARYK1LL3R

in addition to looking up or, and, nor, xor, nand... you can also look up boolian algebra as you will need to understand that and gate theory to tie binary and gates together.

[d159aniel]

@L3G3NDARYK1LL3R Google for 'ascii tables' for the most used translation

[BoeingsAreTheBests]

Hey, can you make a video on adding?

[destin325]

@BoeingsAreTheBests

thank goodness for 4 day weekends :) ..i'll see if i can get something short and to the point together on adding/subtracting/multiplying­/diving binary.

[mgdrunner5711]

Thank you so much!!! This video was very helpful and so easy to understand. I hope that you make more like it in the future!

[destin325]

@mgdrunner5711

thank you for the comment! Last weekend I bought a much larger white board so I can finally start on the HEX, OCT, and BCD videos Im almost 2 years late on making :)

thanks again and check back in a few weeks for the update :)

[goldendog6]

this was SOOO helpful!

[maysonseyebrow]

Why is it when I did 100 (for example) my working was right and I ended up with 1=8 & 1=2. But when I double checked on an online converter the number was 00010000

[destin325]

@maysonseyebrow

ooh, its going to be tough to align it correctly on here but....

100 is 1-0-0 in binary; would look like 4-0-0 (4+0+0) in decimal, which equals 4

if you had 101 that would be 4+0+1.. or 5 in decimal

111 in binary would be 4+2+1 ... 7 in decimal

the numbers go ....64 - 32 - 16 - 8 - 4 - 2 - 1 so a 1 under any of those would be 1 OF that number...in the example above a 1 in all of those places (64+32+16+8+4+2+1) would be 127 in dec or 1111111 in binary

[AncientAncestor]

You're a really talented teacher! Understood everything! :D

[Sepiaapama]

Thank you very much. It was so easy to understand. Now I just need to practice =)

[destin325]

@Sepiaapama

you are welcome. Im glad it helped out :)

[trekranger]

very cool thanks.

[EclipseCries]

Really helpful!

[DiceKinz]

Soo.... Just like Base10, Base2 counts like 00000001, then 00000010, and 00000011, etc? then you go 00000100, 00000101, 00000110, 00000111? As 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7?

[destin325]

@ipodtouchhugger

it can be set up in any number of ways but typically its in a string or just wrap.

What you put up looks like it has breaks in it, there is a form of binary with breaks called BCD (binary coded decimal) in which you only use blocks of 4 in binary.

like..

0100 1100 1110

0110 1101 0011

etc ect

each word is only 4 bits long.

[timsaurusrex]

@destin325 does it have to be 2^0 2^1 and so on

[mrmossify24]

Thanks this was the greatest....i start C++ this year so i need to know this stuff thanks again.

[Patrickkk555]

00111000

[xXxMoMo1994xXx]

He's left handed! :D

[destin325]

@xXxMoMo1994xXx

HA...good eye but kinda a funny story.

though I am left handed, I write with my left hand just like a right handed person writes with their right hand. (my lefties that iv seen contort their wrist and almost end up writing close to upside down)

I also only write, draw, and eat with my left hand.....I bat, play racquetball, throw football, kick, ..etc right handed (right dominant)

I should do a video of this...but I can also write and draw with both hands simultaneously.

[0lucid]

@destin325 same:D

[destin325]

@0lucid

its awesome isn't it :) ..not like "HEY CHECK ME OUT" ..but just a quiet, i like i can do this.... kinda way.

[0lucid]

@destin325 yes it is haha :P didnt expect a reply haha sweet XD

[vensouv]

Thanks a mill. This was so easy to learn, great video man.

[MrKeithtub]

that was the easiest method by far to understand cheers

[jordanr1186]

GREAT JOB MADE IT VERY EASY TO UNDERSTAND

[VBAlien]

@destin325 lol thanks for the video.

[VBAlien]

this video was longer than 2 minutes!

[destin325]

@VBAlien

"this video was longer than 2 minutes!"

hoped it helped :D sorry I just dont have the word/teaching power to lay out binary in < 2 minutes :(

[DiceKinz]

@destin325 I think the title said 10 but 10 in binary is 2 so in binary, you failed to take out your goal of teaching binary in binary 10 (2) minutes. But in decimal, you did fine, and in hexidecimal, you beat your mark by 5 minutes! :p

[IronxMonkey123]

Well done very nice

[destin325]

@IronxMonkey123

thank you. I hope it helped.

[b3nnyb0yz]

Thanks dude, this is easily the best binary tutorial on youtube :)

[MrTK26]

thanks for the vid. I have a test on this tomorrow. you explained it better than the textbook.

[juanpablojou]

Thank you so much! Easy to understand your explanations

[destin325]

@juanpablojou

thank you for the positive feedback!

check back as Im finishing up two vids (one on hex and another on octal) which should be out here in about a month.

Its tough to try and teach an entire "easy to follow" lesson in <15 min.

[tekkiepda3]

@destin325

I have tried to understand binary for years and you truly "taught" it to me in less than 10 min! Amazing!! Thank you sooo much. I look forward to your octal and hex videos. All or none did it for me!

[destin325]

@tekkiepda3

Thanks! The vids are done BUT both are over 15 min long so I need to cut some more "fat" before being able to publish them.

[denezt]

Great Video.

[destin325]

@denezt

thank you much.

[Truespirit777]

thank you

[destin325]

@Truespirit777

your welcome, hope it helped.

[Debugabit]

Thanks 4 the good vid homie

[destin325]

@Debugabit

no problem. I hope it helped.

if you are interesed in hex or octal, I will be getting a video up soon showing how to do hex, bcd, and octal....hex and octal are done but I have yet to get it shortened to >13 min (anything more and I see people losing interest)

[pinkriver101]

‎9+6=F.....9+2=B...F+B=

MY FRIEND POSTED THIS ON HIS FACEBOOK AND HE'S BEEN SAYING THAT TO ANYONE WHO CAN FIGURE THIS OUT HE WILL GIVE $250..HE'S BEEN TEASING AND TAUTING PEOPLE ABOUT THIS I WANNA SHUT HIM UP LOL....CAN U PLEASE HELP..THAT WOULD MEAN THE WORLD 2 ME! :)

[destin325]

@pinkriver101

its hexidecimal

10=A; 11=B; 12=C; 13=D; 14=E; 15=F

9+6=15 (F=15)

9+2=11(11=B)

be careful though in F=15 and B=11 is 26 BUT its really 1A

so F+B= 1A

or 26

:D

[pinkriver101]

@destin325 thank you so much! i shut him up lol. 

[destin325]

@pinkriver101 There are 5 pretty important numbering systems. 1. Decimal (1-10, counting on your fingers and such) 2. Binary 3. BCD or Binary Coded Decimal 4. Octal 5. hexadecimal there are of course many many more out there but these I am pretty familiar with. check back as Ill have a "how to" video on these coming soon. glad I could help you.

[pinkriver101]

@destin325 one quick one so ...1+14+E ??? lol

[destin325]

@pinkriver101

1+14 does =15 and 15 IS E

but 1+14 is not E...15 is just "E" in hex

[pinkriver101]

@destin325 so what exactly does 1+14 equal to?

so 4 bothering a lot its just i find it interesting

[destin325]

@pinkriver101

its no bother. The thing is 1+14 is in the decimal numbering system;therefore, 1+14 is equal to 15 in the decimal numbering system.

15 just happens to also be E in the hex numbering system but if you ask what is 1+14 its going to be 15 not "E" unless the person asking says 1+14 in decimal is equal to what in the hexadecimal numbering system?

[pinkriver101]

@destin325 oh i see..heres a toughy 4 me lol...

65,535 decimal=____ (hexadecimals) ...........

[destin325]

@pinkriver101

65535^10 = FFFF^16

(^10 and ^16 are the annotations for base, decimal is base 10, hex is base 16)

[xXvotickXx]

Binary "101" That's pretty funny

[destin325]

@xXvotickXx

lol its either "101=101" or "101=5" or ...."101= LOL" :D

either way, thanks for watching and as soon as I can get hex and Octal down to >10min ill be in business to upload those too.

[face2facechick]

Please PLEASE can you do one of these on HEX...I beg you!

[destin325]

@face2facechick

lol...your wish is my command. I'll start one tomorrow morning and let you know when I post it.

[HanumanLoki]

My little brother said there are two types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't......

I'm happy to now be apart of the former.

[destin325]

@HanumanLoki

Im glad it helped

but I'll share with you a humorous twist to your brothers remark.

there are three kinds of people in this world; those that can count, and those that cant.

lol, anyway thanks for coming by, watching, and commenting!

[JeFfRiEs65]

yeahhhh !!!! cheers mate

[jadedbutterfly27]

This was a huge help! Thank you so much!

[thenextorion]

Wow Excellent. My ITT Tech teacher should have used this technique!

[destin325]

@thenextorion

thanks! hopefully I can get a hex, bcd, and octal vid done using some very helpful easy to understand techniques.

again, thanks for watching and commenting!

[phillyflopper]

Hey, thanks a bunch for this. I was working on some A+ studying (talking about binary) and something was off with the video (some stuff was missing I think) and I just wasn't understanding it. But at the 5:20 mark, you pretty much nailed the info and I got that "eureka" moment.

Really appreciate you offering this info.

[destin325]

@phillyflopper

glad it helped! 

[Zauten]

thanks a lot for this man! really helped a lot

on the last problem when you said you were gonna turn 98 into binary i paused and did it myself then kept on watching and realized i did it correctly so now i know i understand :^)

thanks a lot again! :D

[destin325]

@Zauten

fantastic! im glad that this (along with what you knew) helped you fully understand the concept.

stay tuned as well...i will sometime here soon put up one just like this for

BCD (binary coded decimal)

hexadecimal

and base 8 (octal numbering)

again, thanks for coming by and im glad that this helped!...i definitely like the part where you figured out the answer before i showed how to get to the answer....inspires me to do more, and i hope you can pass it on too.

[OoMrBenoO]

Thank you so much!

I now understand

[destin325]

you are very welcome.

[Meersiraj]

very nice video.easy to memorize things.gr8 job

[Confilad]

Nice one - Thanks!

[destin325]

thanks a bunch for viewing!

if there were any parts that were hard to understand, let me know since im thinking of redoing it to make it a bit more simple...

[Asilva1993]

Very well explained. I've seen multiple videos attempting to explain it but I find that this is the best.

[destin325]

thank you much !
