can you please explain to me how ones and zeros work that run my computer?

To quote dilbert: "Early Civilisations never had a concept of zero" (hey, you wanted it thorough right?) And they started the number system at one. .... Hmm, pretty much the panel cuts out... \nRemember, the ones and zeros are really the positive and negative polaritys on a magnetic disk. That is the key to your computer informations. Do not take a magnet to your computer.

the simple program given above if fine.. in terms of the conncept.. but there's a bug... \nthe problem is with looping.. coz when u enter a number such as 80301  or 55302 ( a no. having 0 in between), the loop breaks at the point when zero is encountered.\n\n so the output in the first eg. is  8 0 ,sum= 8 (instead of correct 8 0 3 0 1 , sum=12\n\n\nso the logic of handling the number is absolutely correct but the looping is a comparatively difficult job in this case!

nope... 01 (in binary) = 1 (in decimal)\n\nand \n\n10 (on binary) = 2 (in decimal)

hello!!!!!!!!!! \n1+1 in binary is 10! it's not ten but one zero!!!

Here is a article that explains it pretty well.\n\nhttp://www.pcworld.com/article/id,110663-page,1/article.html

smart folks can read through a wipe...always write zeros two or three times before giving away a computer

Using brain, of course.\n\nYou need to know the basic rules:\n0 + 0 = 0; 0 + 1 = 1; 1 + 0 = 1; 1 + 1 = 10.\nMoreover, 0 - 0 = 0; 1 - 0 = 1; 1 - 1 = 0; 10 - 1 = 1;\n1 - 10 = -1; 1 - 11 = -10.\n\nJust do the calculation your way using this relations.\n(Pen and paper are not bad companions.)\nElse, you can convert the binary number to decimal and calculate and then convert the answer back into binary.\n\nThe following link might help you. I saw a conversion table of number systems up there. Have a nice day.

0123456789\n6210001000\n\nHere you can see there are 6 zeros, 2 ones, 1 two, and 1 six.\n\nI suppose you were looking for something more like this though.\n1234567890\n2100010006\n\nFor those of you with the 1000.0008 solution, where is the 1 8?  I suspect that solution is incorrect.

How did you transmit that question to this web site on a machine that uses two bits of symbolic information; 0 and one?

log-1(z) is just b^z where b is the base of the logrithm system you are using.  If you are using "Common" logs, its 10.\n\n\nHow you compute it is going to vary with your calculator\n\nOn the caluclator that comes with Windows:\nSelect Scientific View.\nEnter 10\nClick on the x^y key\nEnter z (the value you want to take log-1 of)\nPress equal.\n\nTo test it, pick a number, say 5, enter it\nClick on the log key. Result will be .69897000...\nSave this for future use by clicking on M+ (add it to your saved memory)\nClear.\nEnter 10.\nClick x^y.\nClick MR (Memory recall) \nClick =. Result will be 5.

It may mean the computer is trying to divide by 0

This is 8 bit binary system.\nand u know, there are only two possibilities for a switch (on/off or 0/1).\nin binary syatem, as i have to take 10101000, to convert into decimal.\nfrom right to left:\n0*2^0 + 0*2^1 + 0*2^2 + 1*2^3 + 0*2^4 + 1*2^5 + 0*2^6 + 1*2^7 = 168 (it is the decimal form).\n\nsimilarly as we take 10110001\n\nthen its decimal is :\nfrom right to left : and increase pawer of 2 from 0 step 1.\n1*2^0 + 0*2^1 + 0*2^2 + 0*2^3 + 1*2^4 + 1*2^5 + 0*2^6 + 1*2^7 =  177

They call ZERO an even number, who are they that mention like this?\n\nActually, odd numbers are start with 1, then 3, 5, etc., even numbers are start with 2, then 4, 6, etc.\n\nIf you check at the numbers system, then you can understand what meant by odd number, even number, negative number, natural number, whole number and others. \n\nSo, here the point is, ZERO actually is not a even number (the smaller even number start with 2), then there was no reason to tell you that why can call it an even number.

VERY GOOD Question!!!\nI don't know, but i never thought abou it either.\n\nwell if you only need to write 0 i guess you don't write anything. and for like 10 you just write an x so i guess there is not a zero because you don't really need it.\n\ni hope i was help!

I would assume that one of your .01s in column A is something like 0.012.\n\nChange your number  format to General and see what happens.

Oh, come on. Windows has a calculator built in. Anyway, it's $2,693,320. The guy above me used 2,500,000 instead of 250,000.

Paramount, everything the computer does is math.\n\nUsing the 0 & 1 to make up all known numbers and characters and to use logical math pathways to calculate instructions in the CPU, the very basis of a computer works in math.
