Chapter three was like drinking from the fire hose! It took
me a while to slog through it. Thankfully, my husband, who is a Senior Software
Engineer, was able to demystify some of the most difficult concepts for me. The
one that I had the most difficulty with, at least, until my husband explained
it to me, was binary numbers. He showed
me how to look for the patterns that emerge.
I slept on his tutorial and was able to finish my homework in a much
shorter amount of time the next day. So when I went to look for the website for
the blog, I knew I wanted it to be about binary. I found a tutorial about binary, which makes
it easier to understand. There are some
other concepts in there which we have not yet touched on, but it also touches
on twos complement and other ways of negation. It seems to be pretty in depth,
and has practice binary math problems. You can find the tutorial at http://www.math.grin.edu/~rebelsky/Courses/152/97F/Readings/student-binary.html
