Pronoun Trouble

Base ten just means that you have ten distinct numerals (0, 1, 2, ... 9) to work with, then you have to jump up to combinations of numberals. Basically, a counting system, yeah.

The reason I know this so well is because computers work on binary, so they had to explain the concept of base ten versus base 2 to us. See, because you only have on/off to use for 'numbers', you count 00, then 01... and then 10.

0(base ten) = 0(base2/binary)
1(base ten) = 1(base two)
2(base ten) = 10(base two)
3(base ten) = 11(base two)

12 is an easy base because you can divide it by two, three, and four. I thought maybe base six for them because 3(tentacles per arm) x 2 = 6. Or they might use some other base completely.

X3;; but that's just me being completely geeky.


*l* And that would be correct, yep. XD
