Week 4: Multiplying & Adding Binary Numbers



Week four focused on multiplication and addition of binary numbers. We focused in class on adding non-negative integers. The lecture was hard, and I was finding it tough to understand. However, when I went back and reviewed the notes, it became easier. I found the tutorial videos are really helpful. 

The key here is to understand that there can only be two variables, "1" and "0"... as well as the fact that it is basic mathematics. The specific rules within multiplying and adding, such as carrying 1's and shifting. Also, know how to convert from binary to decimal is an easy way to ensure your answers are correct.
