1 thing I am concerned about making a webpage:
-I am concerned it being boring because I don't know how to add colors and links.

Other Binary Code

The binary code I liked the most out of the blog posts I looked at was Julia Pustizzi's. I liked how she used the *'s as 1's and the #'s as 0's. I thought that it was easy to follow and I liked the symbols she chose.


#*#####*#*#**###**###****##**#*##*##*##*##*#*#***###*##

This is the code that she wrote in binary and it is "Hello friend".

Why do computers use Binary?

What I learned:
-headphones work from using the binary system also.
-to tell voltage the only numbers you use are 0-9
-if voltage is high, then the headphones will have a lot of pressure coming out.

What I don't understand:
-how can the adder get the wrong number if it doesn't come at a specific time?
-how does cutting the range help get the right number for the adder?

Something I'd like to know more about:
-How do computers produce voltages?

Binary Game

1. On the game, I got to level 4.

2. The hardest part of the binary game for me was the big numbers like the ones in the two hundreds and trying to figure out which cards needed a one and which cards needed a zero.

3.No, I do not like using binary system to count with.

4. A way to count on the figners could be thumb=1, pointer finger=2, middle foinger=4, ring finger=8, pinky finger=16.

5. It's easier for the computer to understand and process things. The binary system is the reason why a computer works so well.

My Binary Code

+ sign is equal to a 1
- sign is equal to a 0

How is school going?

Regular binary:
0110100001101111011101110010000001101001011100110010000001110011011000110110100001101111011011110110110000100000011001110110111101101001011011100110011100111111

My Binary Code:
-++-+----++-++++-+++-+++--+------++-+--+- +++--++--+------+++--++-++---++-++-+----++-++++-++-++++-++-++----+------++--+++-++-++++-++-+--+-++-+++--++--+++--++++++

Blog Post #7: Google Boys

1. Google clarified and cleared up the clutter on the internet which is how it turned from a two man operation into a profitable large corporation. More people wanted to use it as it became more popular. Two college students did this together and Google was released in 1998.

2. People are starting to make other search engines so even though they're still on top, they always have to keep in the back of their mind that there's always competition. Finding computers to run the programs were hard. The machines that ran existing search engines were very expensive.

3. They make money off of the internet and find things on the internet. They also have the fastest search engine.

4. To find their information, Google created Googlebot which is a program that searches the world wide web all the time to find all of the links created on the internet so that you can use any of them when you search a subject.
