Description
An introduction to the binary and hexadecimal number systems and how to perform useful calculations with them, a must for all computer science and engineering students.
You’ll learn about binary and hexadecimal in detail and how to use it in the real world performing mathematical operations on them. You don’t get far in your computer science / engineering career without a fine understanding of binary and hexadecimal, it’s the basis of all computing.
Why is the book so short?
In our Computer Systems in 20 Minutes series we learn about various computer-related tasks and software at a very brisk pace. When you need to learn something you don't always have the time to read a lengthy book, in this series we get to the point and deliver the information as quickly and effectively as possible.
What's included?
How binary works
