The Computer's Code!

Hey Bloggers!
On Wednesday we did some Computational Thinking.
This week, it was to do with binary (binary is a name for computer's code).
We used the numbers 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
To help us understand, Mrs Taylor five of us (she calls us guinea pigs) to hold some papers with numbers and dots printed on them.
She told us that a computer adds up the numbers. Did you know, a computer even counts 0 as a number.
She gave us a few examples. She set a challenge for us: How many numbers can you make only using two of the numbers shown above. Also, if we finished that there was another challenge for us:  How many numbers can you make only using three of the numbers shown above. She got us into groups of two or three and we were off.
I went with Nikita and Hana.
We worked quite hard and did a great job.
Mrs Taylor said that we'll be continuing this next week.
Us working hard.
Anyway,
  Bye!
