Binary Calculator

    Hey there. I'm kinda new to the game, and i've seen these awesome (binary) calculators. Now, i've sorta figured out a bit of it, (for example, you should use BASE 2 (binary) instead of BASE 10 (normal). but i still need some explaining done. So could you please help me out?

    Thanks in advance.

     Binary requires less room(i think)

    Decimal will actually require a wire that can transport 10 different signals.

    Your computer/mobile/laptop/tablet uses binary

    nobody wanted to use decimal because its so hard to make(in real life and in TPT)

    did this answer your question?

    Not really. You see, i understand all that, it's just that i dont get how to make the computer add the two numbers together. but thanks for trying.

     i dont know how a computer adds either but i know its hard to transport 10 different signals in 1 wire

    ask arK, the computer maker or ask SurfCash
