YAY, another digit to my age today. Let's hope I get to add another one before my candle burns out. Do ya think two more digits would be too much to ask for? (If you're confused, I'm 0x20 yrs old -- no longer a hexateenager!) IP: Logged |

I think tekniklr was referring to the topic title "Woo hoo, I'm 100000!" which would indicate that you were 32 years old due to one too many zeroes. IP: Logged |

quote: 0x1F = (16^1)*1 + (16^0)*15 So you are 32 now, and haven't been a teeneager (decateenager) for 14 years, like I originally said 100000 is 32 in binary ((2^5)*1) and 0x20 is 32 in hex ((16^1)*2). I missed the hexateenager part, so your originaly post didn't make much sense. But it doesn't really matter anyway as long as you had a happy birthday!! IP: Logged |
