If 1+1 didn't equal 2
#7
Quote:1 + 1 = 10 in binary.

What now?


To clarify...

(The subscript denotes the base scale. <sub>2</sub> is binary, <sub>10</sub> is decimal.

The number 11
<sub>2</sub>
represents:

2 + 1

1 1

2 + 1


which is 3
<sub>10</sub>
.



To get 11<sub>10</sub> you need 1011
<sub>2</sub>
.

1011
<sub>2</sub>
represents

8 + 4 + 2 + 1

1 0 1 1

8 + 0 + 2 + 1
.

which is 11
<sub>10</sub>
.



But to respond directly,

10
<sub>2</sub>

is


2 + 1

1 0

2 + 0

= 2

TL;DR = 1 and 1 is both 2, 11 and 3. It all depends on what you do with the numbers.
