I'm not a "real" coder, so I have to ask; Wouldn't this be an integer and not a decimal? This is very cool though!
Well this is definitely going to contain witchcraft *inspects* i am correct
the most shocking thing about this is how little code it actually is. it's barely 8kB
Oh my God, played around with this for 30 seconds and now I completely understand how to read binary. Thank you so much!
post that taught a nonbinary person to read binary (this rules!!!)
I wish I'd had something like this when I was learning-- seeing the decimal number instantly change would have been very helpful to reinforce what each spot meant. Excellent work!
i checked khanacademy and brilliant.com expecting to find something like that but nope! apparently a clicky widget is too much for both of them in this case
(thankfully though there's at least two other websites that did it, both originating in the 00·s and thus automatically cooler: https://www.advanced-ict.info/interactive/binary.html https://www.transum.org/software/SW/Binary/Binary.asp)
