Do they even teach binary and hexadecimal in school anymore?
I was a “New Math” child (SMSG), but new math is now derided as elitist and useless unless you intend to be a math professor. Which I don’t really understand. Computers and software use non decimal bases all the time. We talk about set theory and Venn diagrams all the time. You’d think it would be more relevant today than it was during the Space Race.

That would make you 46. I should start tracking my age in hex. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 9/8/2020 2:54 PM, Ken Hohhof wrote: Maybe 50 hexadecimal? It’s my birthday too, but 70.
