inspired by The Best Way To Count.
wow i cant believe nobody else pointed this out but today someone on discord informed me that I accidentally misplaced a bit when multiplying 10 by 101. According to this chart, two times five is eighteen.
This loss meme is a bit complicated
Loss in the nth dimension.
Technically this is Octal since each digit (continuous symbol) has 8 possible states before you reach the next digit. 🤓
I’m using octal as a sub-base to make it easier to count digits, just like using commas to group decimal digits. I think that still counts as binary tho!
There are 11 possible “digits”. 🤓🤓
By your definition having some separator every 3 decimal digits would make it base 1 000. 🤓🤓🤓
Hexadecimal representation with extra steps.
The system in the video allowed using and easily converting between any base that’s a power of 2, like octal and yes, hexadecimal
The person here is using octal
I thought the finger counting system in that video wasn’t particularly great (the solution for finger issues was a bad one, and four (I…) can easily be interpreted as a rude gesture) but the mental maths systems were cool
I found that holding my thumb horizontally and either putting fingers on top of or behind it worked better for me
The second row reads 10 11 100 101 110 111 111*111=110001
