    Binary numbers

    Dec Binary
    0 0000
    1 0001
    2 0010
    3 0011


    Here is a link to a Wikipedia article. This should explain why there are only 10 (2) types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

    For anyone who wasn't sure what the joke was about.

    a site link that Brettw22 had posted regarding a Munchkin hibachi for sale.

    That site also had listed for sale a digital watch. I mean a digital watch that didn't display numerals, just led lights for 1's and 0's. Talk about nerdy ! If I could have figured out how much 59 "drachmas" or "dinars" or "whatever-monetary-unit" meant in real money, I might have bought one.

    Did someone hack Jstas's account and put that up as a joke? Or is that really him? It seems too perfect.

    BTW, here's the bash.org entry I was referring to.

    Was it Yang Wang? In calculus he always related the rate of GPA decline to beers consumed.

    I sure as hell didn't have any other math profs that would have made a joke.

    Nope, it was Ron Shonkwiler in CS/MATH 4777 (Vector and Parallel Scientific Computing). There was precious little opportunity for humor in that class, but he managed somehow :p

    I had other math profs that made jokes - usually snuck them in after the time when everyone stopped paying attention (either due to boredom or brain overload, or both).
