Finally done! [October 5,2010]

October 5, 2010. We're done! We've finally trudged through the muddy swamp of definitions and seen the green field past it! Today, we finished our Basic Computer Glossary up with the remaining four words. Afterwards, Mr. Arkin explained the Paradox of Booting to us and the solution to it. It was actually quite interesting. He also showed us how to convert from Decimal (base 10) to Binary Code (base 2) which the computers know how to read. We learned that the biggest number that could fit into the 7-bit code would be 127. It would have the binary code of 111 1111. I just hope I don't confuse this with math class. @.@
  For homework tonight, we have to write our daily blogs and finish up our personal basic computer glossary. I'm actually looking forward to this because I actually feel very satisfied and proud that I've completed yet another assignment. We also have to look for images! Easy right? I hope so. Anyways, I'm going to do my homework now.
