As someone with no math/computing background, you did a great job!! I now understand binary and hex!! Thank you!

[germantapia]

I wish my teachers from college would have been this great at explaining this complex topic this easy. It would make my life and career much, much easier. You're a great teacher. Is really a shame this channel don't have more views. You're are a great content creator. You have a great passion, is something you love and can make anyone interested. Congratulations and i hope you will keep on creating content.

Ryan, you are a FANTASTIC teacher above all your other skills. I was never in my life able to understand low level programming until i started following your channel.

[matthewcurtis]

You actually taught me something which school didn't. I always found mathematics a challenge (even though I work in IT now), but I had no idea what *in the power of* actually meant until today. Thanks!

Really love your presentation style! Very clear and well spoken. I’ve watched a few of your videos since finding the channel recently and they’ve all been similarly well done. Looking forward to more!

[MrMagaManTron]

Best explanation I have ever heard for these concepts thank you!

[keithstone]

This is amazing. Very interesting. I love 3502, z80, and 68000 CPU infrastructure and I've always wanted to learn about machine language programming. I would love to make mods for games that use this stuff. Good work!

I just stumbled upon your channel and feel like I found a mine of gold. Thank you so much for the great content! keep the awesome work going.

[blue_shiner]

A channel with production quality worth far more views! If only people were interested enough in educating themselves to seek out this content!

[ohaia]

Thank you for your tutorial, as someone with lack on math and computing, i now understand this!!

[Nosy]

Great content. I bless the algorithm gods to show your channel for me.

[HyagoPinheiro]

This video should be used on Computer Science 101 classes.
It's very easy to follow and understand. Thank you!

Mad respect to this dude
Now i can learn 6502
My dream retro cpu

9:10 I love how you brought image of Japan... and have New Game! poster in it, which is anime about making video game.

Discrete mathematics book detected! Probably one of the best resources for CS/CE students, self-learners, and hobbyist. Computers and code machine are basically a form of mathematics itself.

Great or best video out of on YouTube 🎉🎉❤😊

[sethparnell]

Fantastic Video! keep up the good work. :)

How about bitrigesimal (base 32), tetrasexagesimal (base 64), octovigesicentesimal (base 128) or hexaquingesiducentesimal (base 256)?

[noobynoob]

Why not base-256? That'd represent an entire byte in a single character. With the amount of characters in logographic languages – cantonese, for example – it seemingly wouldn't be excessively difficult to create a system to notate base-256.

So, let me see if I understand this correctly: Binary numbers can be written in any length/amount of digits; when converting binary to hexadecimal, the binary number sequences are broken down into sets of 4 digits (and we just use the lookup table to see what those are); hexadecimal is always written as two digits; and for the ascii I just use the lookup table to see which hexadecimal value is equal to whatever number/letter/symbol?
