Introduction
When you hold up your index and middle fingers and leave the others down, it will give you the sum of?
Answer: 8 + 4 = 12.
Procedure:
Procedure
1. Looking at your hand imagine, when your fingers are curled down that fingers represent the value of zero. Standing up right your fingers
represent the number one.
2. So if all your fingers are curled down you would write your hand as 00000. If all your fingers are upright it would be 11111.
Example:
Using your left hand, hold up only your little finger, curl down your thumb and the other three fingers. This is the number 1 and is written in
binary code as 00001. We can see this because the first four fingers (including your thumb) are curled down and only the last finger is
standing.
The number 2 in binary code is 00010 because the ring finger is upright and the others are curled.
B. Abstraction What’s happening?
When we count and do everyday calculations like adding and multiplying, we use the decimal number system. When computers count, calculate and
process words, they use the binary number system.
Using the decimal system, which is based on the number 10, the positions of the digits in a number, reading from the right, mean ‘units’, ‘tens’,
‘hundreds’, ‘thousands’, and so on. (The value of each position goes up by a factor of 10.) The decimal system uses 10 numerals (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)
and the number 453 means 3 units, 5 tens and 4 hundreds.
In the binary representation of a number, the position of the digits, mean ‘units’, ‘twos’, ‘fours’, ‘eights’, ‘sixteens’, and so on. The value of each
number goes up by a factor of 2. Look at your hand again, did you notice that?
The binary number system uses two numerals (0 and 1) and 1101 means (reading from the right to the left) 1 unit, no twos, 1 four and 1 eight, or 1 + 4
+ 8, which equals 13. (A bi nary digi t (a 1 or a 0) is called a bit .)
The binary number system is ideal for use in computer programs because the two digits can be represented by the two states of an electronic circuit
(off = 0 and on = 1).
Although computers are based on the binary number system, we don’t have to use binary numbers when using one. Instead, we enter decimal
numbers the computer converts into binary before manipulating them. Fortunately, computers are much faster than we are at translating decimal into
binary.
Binary codes can represent the letters of the alphabet, numerals, common symbols, and commands such as ‘space’ or ‘enter’ on the computer
keyboard.
E. Application
Activity 3 “OH MY HAND, TALK TO ME”
V. EVALUATION Direction: Give the decimal number of the following binary codes.
1. 111011 = 59
2. 1111111 =127
3. 10000000 = 128
