Binary (full understanding in 10 min)

Understanding the Binary numbering system with this video should be pretty easy and deep enough to give you FULL understanding rather than the basic idea.
If you have any questions, feel free to message me about it and ill certainly be glad to answer your comments and PM's.

[@IVIurray25]

you just explained this better than my professor with a PhD

[@Mr.M1STER]

Me too.

@Kade Rhys lol it's been 6 years, why are you guys talking about watching movies 😂

[@ConfusingSecurity]

Very nice description! I struggled for months in college trying to understand binary when being taught only the weighted table approach, with no explanation for why. Then within 5 minutes I hear "binary can be considered as all or none", and BOOM! Everything's so much easier to comprehend now :)

[@samkuria6631]

I wish there was google in 1994 when I was learning Electronics in college.Life could have been much easire and fun.

[@troydills4953]

Thank you for finally getting me to understand Binary! I have been in the IT field for the last 22 years. My degree is in computer programming. I never could understand Binary the way I was taught. Most of you know, that if you are going to be a programmer, it is a huge help if you understand binary and is a must in some areas of programming. You made it look so easy, I don't know why everyone else can't make it look this easy. Thanks again!

[@Judgey19XX]

Thanks I just started a computer science degree and I was having trouble understanding binary but this is by far the best explanation I've heard.

[@shaynethompson-scott9774]

you have a pet lama

[@Dubstequtie]

You explained this sooo much less complicated than my teacher did. He kinda favors the kids he had last year in his other class... they all learned binary at that time, and I was left not knowing how it works because I didn't take that class.. so I took the liberty to come here and learn. Thank you for providing this very effective and easy to get video!

[@shaynethompson-scott9774]

you are a alien are you from area 51

[@TheDeadsilent]

There are 10 kind of people in this world. Those who do understand binary, and those who do not

[@SamSam-yf2xj]

This joke I am taking it

[@christytam2022]

I now understand this joke.

[@TheELiTeintruder]

clever....

[@ALGN28]

bruh

[@TheDeadsilent]

No, my calculus teacher wore a shirt that said it to school one day. Haha, either way I didn't actually come up with it.

[@Madelope]

Taking an online course in uni, I was 3 hours into my reading trying to learn this, I watch this video instead.. makes SO much sense. God my prof made it sound so confusing. Thank you for this!

[@itshiro9293]

same lol. taking cs50.. lol its fun but man..

[@jasminelrodriguez16]

I am so happy I came across this video!! I have a test tomorrow and do not understand a word of what my professor has said, but this video has made it sooo simple! Thank you!!!!!

[@mickymickymike4105]

This video helps me out a lot. Taking a basic programming class in college and couldn't grasp the concept until I saw this video. What I did for the 98 was just add across to get to 98. Saves lots of time. Thanks again! Now I need to know hexadecimal.

[@jamaraquai4224]

Of all the reading I've done regarding basic binary comprehension, this was by FAR the best explanation. Thank you, sir.

[@komala94]

You are a brilliant teacher! I wish you had taught me Maths at school. You took such a complex concept and simplified it in ten minutes. Thank you for making me understand this!

[@shaynethompson-scott9774]

you invented kfc

[@chitvanrandhawa6365]

I've been trying to wrap my head around binary for the longest time and you just explained it to me in 10 mins. Great video ! SO helpful.

[@JudahFringes]

Man you are the best! After all these years! You have given me a TRUE FOUND understanding! I completely understand binary now and not just how to tell time! 2 decades after college!

[@Randy-Bear]

just took a 2 hour class on this and came out not fully understanding. i watched this video and it all made sense. thank you

[@Tropax1]

The same with me mate lol.

[@anzelledewet2779]

when you can explain it to beginner then you KNOW you know it well - thanks so much

[@markweberusf]

I've watched SO many videos on how to convert and this is the easiest to understand. THANK YOU!

[@xrpbay9101]

Oh my gosh! I spent so much time trying to figure out binary. Over an hour on one video alone! 😩 I just watched yours and I finally understand it completely. All within ten minutes. Thank you!

[@NeoliticGaming]

Can't believe how easy you made it look. Thank you!

[@misanthrope1920]

I took a programming course in which I was required to learn binary, this lesson was better than the classroom lesson, thank you so much.

[@YouHaveNeverHerdOfMe]

Thank you for making this an hour shorter and ten times more understandable than my teacher does!

[@mangouni]

Yes!!! After this video there could be just 1 kind of people in the world - the ones who do understand binary! This is an actual explanation! Thank you!!!!!

[@iAmTashan]

Before i just watched this i was struggling with understanding binary for over a year I blame my lecturers, but a year later I just watched this and it took me 10mins to understand... THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH!!

[@TheZwar]

Wow. All I can say, is BRAVO! I have been explained this multiple times, and never grasped it until now. Thank you for sharing this!

[@Neutron91939]

Finally I found someone who can teach. Thank you

[@datboyblu3]

Thanks so much! I'm taking component based software and have a quiz on this next week, haven't used it in YEARS but your video brought back a lot of lessons!

[@JerlenVega]

that "all or nothing" thing you said really helped me, thanks

[@AlanMaloney2]

I'm about to sit my first Electrical and Electronic engineering exam in the morning, this helped big time. Much love from Ireland

[@waleed96hussain]

You are the best teacher ever. I understand every bit of what you said, you deserve a round of applaud

[@parthj2039]

Literally the best explanation on Binary I have ever seen- THANK YOU!!!

[@heatherlongfellow6291]

Thank you so much for this. I am in a college IT intro course and could not understand the description of binary in the textbook or lecture AT ALL. I would have gotten a zero on my quiz without your video. I can do it with your method!

[@Terabyte1244]

I’ve watched 4 videos prior to this and you are the only one that could make me understand thanksss a billion times

[@jilbake]

I almost didn't click on this. Glad I did. hours of learning condensed in 10 minutes. Outstanding!!

[@marko2118]

Final someone who just gets how to explain it. Thank you!

[@NEJ94]

LECTURER SPENT 2 HOURS EXPLAINING THIS TODAY AND I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND. 10 MINUTES OF YOUR VIDEO IS ALL IT TOOK FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND. EASIEST SYSTEM, THANK YOU BILL!!!!!

[@michellesakael2148]

best teaching of the binary system I've seen. I'm glad I came across it.

[@VashistSookraj]

I didn't know anything and I have an exam today. Thank you very much this saved me. You are an awesome teacher.

[@Chamberlinable]

I pay for my physics teacher to teach me this. You just did it in ten minutes and I actually understand it. Thank you.

[@zoez3049]

I'd been trying to learn how to count binary for sooo long and it's just now making sense, thank you so much!

[@candycandy319]

i am so glad I found your video before i spend my next hour staring at the binary number table

[@vandomog1013]

Hi. I've watched this tutorial again out of interest as I am studying a Mathematics Degree with one of my units being based upon Information Technology and Networking. It's amazing what information you pick up the 2nd time that you didn't pick up the 1st time.

[@melizabeth623]

And I was worried that it wouldn't work for every single number, but I tested it: If you have a remainder of 1, you fill in the 1. Remainder 2, fill in the 2 box. Remainder 3, fill in both 1 and 2. R 4, fill in the 4! R 5, fill in 4 and 1. R 6, fill in 4 and 2. R7, fill in 4, 2, and 1. I could go on and on I'm so excited, but I won't because that would just be irritating. This is SO COOL!! It's like...another language. Anyway, thank you so much!! I can do life now XD

[@oukatu]

As a new student trying to learn about computer hardware/software this was amazingly simple, primarily thanks to you Bill, Appreciate the breakdown and ill be looking into more tutorials from you.

[@sarahfrank2835]

Thank you for sharing. This is the third video I've watched on binary, and this is the first one I've fully understood.

[@mohammedchhipa8745]

Your video is excellent! I viewed 2-3 other videos on binary numbers prior to this and all it did was confuse me even more. Thank you so much for explaining this so perfectly.

[@agsotonukable]

This the best video I have seen on you tube that explains conversion of binary to decimal and vice versa. The guy in the video explains everything very clearly so even someone dumb like me finally understands how to do this. I now feel empowered and will probably take over the world... Many thanks to this guy for sharing this video on You Tube!!

[@SergioFBarrero]

I'm studying to be an audio engineer with the Audio Institute of America. I couldn't understand the portion about the binary system, but this makes sense. Thanks!

[@destin325]

@pinkriver101 There are 5 pretty important numbering systems. 1. Decimal (1-10, counting on your fingers and such) 2. Binary 3. BCD or Binary Coded Decimal 4. Octal 5. hexadecimal there are of course many many more out there but these I am pretty familiar with. check back as Ill have a "how to" video on these coming soon. glad I could help you.

[@rocketsciengineering]

Currently learning this in college and some of it made sense, the majority was just lazily explained. Thank you very much for the straightforward explanation, it all makes sense now. Hats off to you pal!

[@ashmangy]

Thank you soooo much!!!! I was completely lost until I found this video. You were a tremendous help!! Finally, someone who can explain this in a non-confusing way! Kudos :)

[@ShooterInfinity]

you're a wizard man, you made something others make look like learning a different language, look as simple as it should be.

[@grannyshark2023]

this is the first video that made any sense to me about binary. the visual really helped. thank you for this.

[@destin325]

thanks a bunch for viewing! if there were any parts that were hard to understand, let me know since im thinking of redoing it to make it a bit more simple...

[@timothyleekexin]

This makes soooo much sense! Thanks dude! My lecturer lost me at this part. Thanks for clarifying it

[@c.md_]

I just wanted to say thank you for the way you set this up and explained it. The chart set up, and then the example really illustrated to me what binary is. I really needed to understand this and I was getting frustrated, so much appreciated ^^

[@DanHamFTW]

Always have been curious how binary works, but never went out of my way to look. Finally took to google and instantly found your video. It's so simple! Thanks for the simple and great explanation :)

[@ummhaneef9732]

After watching countless videos on this topic, I finally understand it after watching this. I am so, so grateful

[@chrisionescu]

You sir, are an asset to the KZbin community, thanks for your help!

[@MH-xn8qv]

THANK YOU! Love the all or nothing...I left class tonight knowing nothing. You cleared it all up!

[@berlinmadchen86]

Thank you so much! I looked all over the web for information on binary number so I could understand it. You made perfect sense and were easy to follow. Thank you.

[@marcoiscoolies]

Man, thanks for explaining this, my teacher couldn't get this over to me for who knows how long, and I've just learnt it in 10 minutes.

[@BootzBTrippin1]

Thank you. I have an exam tomorrow and I was having a hard time with binaries. I watched this and got all the review questions correct!

[@taryntarynator]

This is the best explanation I have found on the Internet!

[@ms135]

Thanks for teaching me Binary! I had so much fun going along with the examples and predicting the answer! I loved it! One thing that sounded a bit confusing was when you said 98 goes into x, when you should have said x goes into 98, over all though, great vid, best one I found(:

[@TheRAD126]

This is probably the best tutorial for binary on youtube THANKYOU VERY MUCH

[@destin325]

@Zauten fantastic! im glad that this (along with what you knew) helped you fully understand the concept. stay tuned as well...i will sometime here soon put up one just like this for BCD (binary coded decimal) hexadecimal and base 8 (octal numbering) again, thanks for coming by and im glad that this helped!...i definitely like the part where you figured out the answer before i showed how to get to the answer....inspires me to do more, and i hope you can pass it on too.

[@WanderingVincent]

Thanks so much for making this video. Clears up a lot of the confusion I get from reading my CompSci textbook. You rock, dude!

[@bryanboyd9453]

I went from thinking I'd NEVER understand this to sitting here Just doing it for FUN. God I wish my PLC instructor explained it like this!!! GREAT VIDEO MAN. Well done!

[@odairvaz9115]

OMG! This really helped me understand how Binary numbers are calculated. Thank you sooooo much.

[@healthystyle]

You have explain this far better than course tutor!!! I was in class today and I thought I had absolutely No Hope..thank you for giving me a fighting chance!!!! Thank you so much from a stupid dyslexic person you have help me so much u dont just how much....Thank you!!!

[@shawnp001]

Great video I am 50 and just learning this, I have never been great at math in my head and this was really confusing me but now it is clearer to me I don't think i will have any more trouble with it Thank You

[@NickyCee1234]

Thank you SO MUCH for this amazing video. I just watched it with my 8 year old and now we both understand binary!!

[@killzie10_04]

You explained Binary better than my IT teacher, Thanks Bill NO.

[@AnnieHonjo]

Oh boy - I wish you'd been my Maths teacher when was a teenager. You explained that SO well. Thank you!

[@Dherreiros]

Excelente, sencillamente excelente, anos tratando de entender este sistema y en menos de tres minutos este hombre lo hizo. Gracias.

[@clairel3202]

Thank you. This is very clear. Hope to see more details in binary floating numbers!

[@sherrykenney6612]

CLAIRE L thank you

[@cameronwilliams1250]

Wow, you made such a complicated COMP 280 lecture so easy! Thank you!

[@vivinhabrasilusa]

WOW! Only now I finally understood! Pay for college and I still came home without understanding, I read a few websites but still didn't get it, when I saw your video I thought that I should give a try since nothing has worked so far. But now I finally got it!!! Thank you! This is very helpful. I love to find people who help others! I really appreciate you taking the time to help us. Peace out!

[@MyDarwin2009]

Thank you very much, only video in KZbin that explained carefully and understandable.

[@luisbenavides2046]

Fantastic video - Helped me to understand binary system after I completely got lost in a lecture.

[@gerardrastelli6253]

This is so funny.I have been trying to get a clear understanding of this for so so long,and nothing clicked. I know it is supposed to be something super simple,but I am older now and I guess some things don't sink in as easily as when I was younger.But THIS is the FIRST time I can honestly say I have an exact understanding of the binary system.I cannot thank you enough.I KNEW if I went to youtube I could find this out.Some things really need to be shown to be understood to some people.Thank you!

[@816meezy]

Thanks!!! out of all the people that's tried to explain this, by far you have succeeded!!! Thanks again.

[@7thSenpai]

I think its pretty simple to explain. As you pointed out, binary is base 2 numbering system. That just means there is only 2 symbols to represent numbers. It is confusing for people because when they see the symbol "1" they automatically think in a base 10 system. In binary there are only 2 symbols to represent our numbers which means counting after the 2nd symbol you then add another column. In computers also often represent a status and not just to count so people must understand its symbolic.

[@muslim78652]

man thank you sooooo much, your the only person that made it clear, not even my professor could explain it, thanks alot!!!!

[@g0bl1n1962]

I am grateful to have this basic lesson. I celebrated the big five oh this month, I can now say that this PROBLEM plagued me for the past 37 years since school days. IF my teacher, although he was a damned good teacher (the best in my life!!!), had explained these thing LIKE this, THEN I would feel more confident at my maths exams.

[@michaeltimms9779]

Thank you so much Bill. You are a great teacher. This is by far the best explanation that I have ever had.

[@stephengalindo6340]

YOU SIR!!! you, sir, dumbed this down to where a 5th grader could understand. Thank you so much!!!

[@aktifistri]

Awesome and super helpful for somone with poor math skill level like myself! Thank you so much! I'm taking a basic programmer course, and trying to get better understanding about binary. This one helps a lot!

[@michaeltracy2355]

Hello Bill NO, I appreciate you thoroughly going through these problems and explaining the way you have! I understand these problems now and love you for it! I could not understand it in my text book and other KZbin videos. However, your video just encouraged me to become a pro at these codes! Thank you very much for sharing this video!

[@trueblue2290]

Thank you so much for uploading! This was the only video I've found that actually got me to understand Binary :)

[@VS31636]

thanks for this video. I watched a vid from Harvard's EdX class this morning and didn't understand. Your version I picked up right away

[@julioreyes4153]

YOU ARE AWESOME!! I was struggling in understanding it, but my man, you are the greatest teacher alive!

[@warren010h]

Excellent..its been quite a while since I've studied this system but I understand it more so now than I did then

[@destin325]

@TheVonjoker How much experience have you had with binary in the past? I have considered remaking this video (since it is one of my most popular videos .. haha a whopping 12K views in 2 years) so as to make it shorter, more too the point, and without the added conversion from dec to bin to dec at the end.

[@DefinitelyNotBillCipher-f5z]

I finally get binary. thanks to this tutorial. I've tried learning from other places but they always just ended up confusing me.

[@jayg2692]

Wow, I thought binary would be way harder than this, but you made it so simple thank you very much. Also I have a question: Is it possible to use binary to make a word like elephant?

[@mckierobert2083]

Amazing, especially the weighted table. I had lined up 5 videos to watch on the subject. Yours was the second, scrap the others I now have what I need. Many thanks for sharing.

[@destin325]

@mgdrunner5711 thank you for the comment! Last weekend I bought a much larger white board so I can finally start on the HEX, OCT, and BCD videos Im almost 2 years late on making :) thanks again and check back in a few weeks for the update :)

[@TwistedDarling]

Out of curiosity, I tried to find out how to understand Binary. I looked at about 3 videos before this one and could only grasp a hint of an idea of how it works. I don't know if it was just repetition but, this video was a lot easier to understand than the previous ones I've watched. Maybe it was because it was explained better here. Either way, thank you for helping people get a better understanding on the subject. It's much appreciated. :)

[@upabittoolate]

Bill NO, you just saved my life. Thank you.

[@destin325]

@xXvotickXx lol its either "101=101" or "101=5" or ...."101= LOL" :D either way, thanks for watching and as soon as I can get hex and Octal down to >10min ill be in business to upload those too.
