Okay, I guess I should be explaining some computer codes to you guys. xD

 

As you probably already know, this is binary:

01010100 01101000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01100010 01101001 01101110 01100001 01110010 01111001 00101110

Well, technically it's ASCII text encoded as binary, but that's beside the point. Anyway, binary is pretty much raw machine code.

 

Now, this is hexadecimal encoding:

54 68 69 73 20 69 73 20 68 65 78 2e

It's a convenient way to compact binary so that it's easier to remember, yet still comprehensible to a computer. Any 8-bit binary 'word' can be represented by a 2-bit hexadecimal 'word'. For example, '54' in hexadecimal is the same as '01010100' in binary. If you translate them to ASCII, they both represent a capital 'T'.

 

Finally, this is Base64 encoding:

Short version: This encoding is useful because it allows you to turn raw binary data into text and back again. This is how you can send pictures and other kinds of non-text files via e-mail. Incidentally, this also means that there's really no point to talking in Base64. :P

 

Long version:

Base64 is a group of similar encoding schemes that represent binary data in an ASCII string format by translating it into a radix-64 representation. The Base64 term originates from a specific MIME content transfer encoding.

 

Base64 encoding schemes are commonly used when there is a need to encode binary data that needs be stored and transferred over media that are designed to deal with textual data. This is to ensure that the data remains intact without modification during transport. Base64 is used commonly in a number of applications including email via MIME, and storing complex data in XML.

 

I think this deserves at least a brief win. xD

Well, I suppose, but I think it would be better to make them wonder.

All I do is win win win no matter what, got money on my mind I could never get enough,

and every time I step up in the building, everybody's hands go up!

Definitely.

 

Our school is so ghetto that our marching band plays it at our football games.
