# yeah you got the binary right
16 8 4 2 1
1 0 0 0 1

edit: god that makes me sound a really nerdy geek, its only because I spent 2 years using it. Adding, subtracting and multiplying in binary as well. Hex can fuck right off :)

# Eh, what? :)
Binary numbers don't have a position for a boolean value to express whether to add zero to the number or not.

# Does the final zero represent the position for one half, then?

# yup, divide by 2 for each column

|    2 |    1 |  1/2 |  1/4 |  1/8 | 1/16 | 1/32 | 1/64 |
|    1 |    1 |    0 |    0 |    1 |    0 |    0 |    1 |

# ^ What they said
And also, what would a zero column mean?
100011 = 16 + 1 + 0 = 17
100010 = 16 + 1 = 17

# I think
it would be the difference between 0.99999999999999999999999... and 1.
