    I cannot find the thread but someone was looking for some equations. Here is one that counts in binary i.e. moves a one into the next significant bit each time: X*2+1;

    1
    11
    111
    1111
    11111
    111111
    1111111
    11111111

    Here is another one:

    Code:
    a%=0
    b%=1
    do
    b%=b%/2
    a%=a%+b%
    print a%
    loop while a%<>1

    Pretty obvious, since to multiply any binary number by 2 you just add a zero on the end. (i.e. in binary 111 times 10 = 1110, which in decimal says 7 times 2 = 14).

    This one prints (in binary):

    0.1
    0.11
    0.111
    0.1111

    etc.

    Why is any of this important?
