Converting B10 to B2:

NOTE: 1 bit = 1 digit

Step one: Find out how many bits you will need. This is harder to explain than it is to do. The number you want to convert to B2/binary will be called X, and we'll have another number called Z.
Basicially, Z will tell us how many bits we'll need. When you begin, Z will be 1. Continue multiplying Z by 2 until Z is larger than X.

Step two: Preparing. Okay, so this part is a little bit harder. I suggest getting a pen and paper, or maybe opening up Notepad or something. What I want you to do is to take Z and write it down. Draw a line to the right of it, divide Z by 2, then write Z (after you divided it) beside the line. Continue doing that until Z is 1.

Step three: Converting. This part is very easy. Depending on how big X is, that line of numbers that you wrote down earlier should look something like this:

128|64|32|16|8|4|2|1

Now, take X, and find the biggest number that is smaller than X. Below that number, write a 1. (I'll be using 92 as an example)

128|64|32|16|8|4|2|1
.0.|1.|

Now, take X, and take away the number with a 1 under it. Then continue finding the biggest number that's smaller than X, write a 1 under that number, subtracting, until X is 0.

128|64|32|16|8|4|2|1
.0.|1.|0.|1.|1|1|0|0

So, 92 is 01011100.

I already made a tutorial on this. Stop copying me doggle! Unless you're going to be more descriptive than I was. If you are, then by all means, go ahead and keep making them.

Pfft, of course I'm not.

I don't even know much PHP, let alone [My]SQL.
