Activity 6 Journal Entry

Today we talked about the binary and hexadecimal numbering systems. I learned that Macs don't use the 255 numbers to show colors, but use the hexadecimal system. With the hexadecimal, it uses numbers and letters. For example, white would be FF-FF-FF. Next we saw how to count in hexadecimal from 0 to 15, and saw the binary conversions. Lastly, we found out that the ASCII system is used to represent characters such as letters, and I decoded the worksheet. I scanned and posted this, and also created a post of counting from 0 to A in hexadecimal.
