Wrong!

[jovino]

There's 10 people who understand binary:

those that do,

and those that don't.

[mrhero99]

it's 819 in binary!

512+256+32+16+2+1=819

[lomsvv]

Either 819 or 633 depending on perspective.

(Or if they're doing it strangely 825 or 627)

This assumes that you are looking at it based on sequence rather than each finger always representing some power of 2, though

Thanks. I'm taking intro to computer science and this helps a lot. Now I can be the alpha nerd in my class.

132 you!

@jovino Its, there are 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand Binary, and those that don't.
