All bases are base 10
Not base 1.
I'm only interested in 3rd base currently.
Based sex-pest
All bases are belong to us
Babe, on a scale of 0x1 to 0x10, I give you a solid A+.
A+? Would that just be B or does it round down
It can be whatever you like
More important is the scale. On a scale of 10 means it doesnβt matter in what base XD
So then this would mean a 1 in binary is a decimal 5?
On a scale of 10, 10 in Base 2 would be 2.
On a 100, right?
Should've just said "True".
Babe, you are a 0b1.
But on a binary scale this would translate to 11 base 10.
Wut?
10 binary = 2 decimal
10 decimal = 1010 binary
Where are we getting 11?
10 is the base (2) overflowed by 1 (zero indexed) which kind of translates to 10+1 base 10 (1 indexed). I didn't really mean in in mathematical but rather nonsensical way. I just wanted to pull 11/10
