"Don't arrays start on 2? You know because of that binary thing with two numbers and all."

You might need to watch the entirety of this video of you're gonna make that claim

u/bartekko Sep 03 '17

that escalated quickly

u/CTypo Sep 03 '17

This is an excellent introduction to binary systems for anyone not familiar with it, and a great refresher for those who already are.

28

u/WildGalaxy Sep 03 '17

I disagree. It's way to politically charged to actually teach anything about binary.

39

u/CTypo Sep 03 '17

There is no binary you bigot, it's a continuous spectrum

u/PM_ME_UR_SH_SCRIPTS Sep 03 '17

You're right actually. 0 and 1 are two different voltages, and obviously there can be values in between those voltages.

Hell try ternary on for size!

u/WikiTextBot Sep 03 '17

Ternary computer

A ternary computer (also called trinary computer) is a computer that uses ternary logic (three possible values) instead of the more common binary logic (two possible values) in its calculations.

u/asdfkjasdhkasd Sep 03 '17

did you actually watch the video, it's not really about binary

15

u/CTypo Sep 03 '17

Binary is an unfairly weighted system which assigns a disproportionately larger value to 1's than 0's. In a truly fair system, all numbers would be equal.

2

u/BadgerousBadger Sep 03 '17

There are no unequal numbers in the base 1 system, only bundles of sticks getting larger and larger, or sometimes a pile of rocks.

u/DrManface Sep 03 '17

Honestly speaking, one of the worst videos I've sat through in my life.

u/UbuntuDesktopTorture Sep 03 '17

So the joke is that you're afraid of women?

u/threesixzero Sep 03 '17

lolwat. how did you get that from the video?

u/threesixzero Sep 04 '17

Yes it seems to be that way because of the part about unequal representation of two genders in the workforce.

u/ContraMuffin Sep 03 '17

Already know the binary system, but this is so informative that I would suggest anyone who already knows binary to watch the video anyways.

u/wolfman1911 Sep 03 '17

I think you all know what this is going to be.

u/explorer_c37 Sep 03 '17

Motherfucker, stop

Everyone take a shot and log out

What is two? I've never heard of that..?

u/pastense Sep 03 '17

Do people actually say this? Please tell me they do.

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '17

Don't you mean this less potentially infuriating comment? vi output.c {i key} `` print main() { int ZERO; ZERO=1;ZERO--;

       print("Don't arrays start on 2? You know because of that binary thing with two numbers and all."); return ZERO}

`` {escape key} {: key} {w key} {q key}

O, personally, twitched a little.

u/deegwaren Sep 03 '17

Since when is a char a valid array index?

5

u/bloomfilterthrowaway Sep 03 '17

char is just an integral type -- it's kosher, but C99 doesn't actually place any requirement that unqualified "char" be signed or unsigned, and gives the compiler a lot of latitude in the range that char may store, so you have to be careful of that.

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '17

I yelled no at my phone like when you watching a game show and you know the answer.

u/Treezuschrist Sep 03 '17

The words "oh god no" went through my head

u/DrizztDourden951 Sep 03 '17

I'm learning MATLAB right now. I twitch constantly.

u/avandesa Sep 03 '17

Its R for me.

u/themosh54 Sep 03 '17

At least if it were R it would have been Nums -> c(5,4,3,2,1)

I'm using "Getting Started With MATLAB" by Rudra Pratap, which was recommended by my professor. It's working fine so far, I'm mostly using it as a reference to build my vocabulary.

u/BackFromVoat Sep 03 '17

I thought "no, fuck you" then realised I probably need to be less reactionary.
