@Braiam do you know a better dup?

Braiam

@JanDvorak there isn't

is OT

Jan Dvorak

01:28

@Braiam is it? What reason?

Braiam

@JanDvorak is not programing related

Jan Dvorak

it sure is

"how do you make such conversions"

Braiam

he isn't asking how to write code to do X or solve a problem with code that do X, he's asking how mathematically convert a binary number to decimal

you don't need any programing skill to solve that problem

Binary number

In mathematics and digital electronics, a binary number is a number expressed in the binary numeral system, or base-2 numeral system, which represents numeric values using two different symbols: typically 0 (zero) and 1 (one). More specifically, the usual base-2 system is a positional notation with a radix of 2. Because of its straightforward implementation in digital electronic circuitry using logic gates, the binary system is used internally by almost all modern computers and computer-based devices such as mobile phones. Each digit is referred to as a bit. == History == The modern binary number...

Infinite Recursion

In base 10, the value is 21: 2^4 + 2^2 2^0 .....2^4 = 16, 2^2= 4, 2^0 = 1, so 16+4+1=21 — Infinite Recursion 2 mins ago

Nice comment about the java tag.

Hey, I'd like someone here to weigh in on whether I've done something stupid or not. I was reviewing this suggested edit, because the original post had capitalisation issues which were obvious and left unfixed. As you know, it's suggested to place some reasoning in the edit summary, which I did. A few minutes later, someone posts this comment:

@Qantas - you performed the edit; you should have fixed the grammar. Please don't troll Windows questions like they are HTML/CSS/Javascript questions. — jww 17 mins ago

I thought the way the post was worded was understandable enough, so I left it as it was. Was I wrong in performing this edit? What grammar changes would you have done to the post?

Just ignore him, not worth spending your time thinking about anything he says. Your edit is good. The question is clear and understandable, if he has an issue, he should edit it himself.
