    I am not sure if this is considered advertisement, because the sole purpose is to help with creations in TPT. For those of you that don't understand binary, this is a good way to learn.

    Mods, if you feel this is advertisement, feel free to lock. Just trying to help.

    I don't think that's necessary. Binary is quite simple and shouldn't require such aid. But every one learns differently so I guess that may help some people.

    Thanks so much! Now I know how binary works.

    So, say, 01000111 would be 1+2+4+64 and that is 71, amirite?

    It isn't THAT bad...the hard bit would be making a floating point unit to calculate it.
