Understanding Binary
0
Im reading out of my C++ programming introductory book. I understand the basics of binary like 10001(2) = 17(10) and that you can find a Base 2 number from a base 10 one by long division, but a part of the book confused me.
"Let us consider the integer 65. Note that 65/2=32 and 65%2=1, where % is the mod operator." What the hell is a mod operator? I can't find and explanation anywhere in the book.

The mod operator is like the division operator except you get the remainder instead of the quotient.
10 % 2 = 0 (10/2 = 5 remainder 0)
10 % 3 = 1 (10/3 = 3 remainder 1)
10 % 2 = 0 (10/2 = 5 remainder 0)
10 % 3 = 1 (10/3 = 3 remainder 1)

That makes sense, thanks!

There's 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand binary and those that don't.I'm one of those who don't. At all. I thought binary was 001 010101 0101 010 10101 10101 012

Wrong, since there wont be a 2 in binary!
