n our very first module, we looked at numeration systems and the different bases that various cultures used. The Babylonian system was base 60; the Mayan system was base 20 (almost); and our Hindu-Arabic system is base 10. You read in the Grace Hopper biography that computers use a base 2 system. In base 2, only two symbols are used, so all numbers are represented with 0s and 1s. A. Change the number 100 (base ten) to a numeral in base two. B. Change the number 1010101 (base two) to a numeral in base ten. C. This is a fun problem! The moon is approximately 238,900miles from Earth. Admiral Hopper explained to David Letterman that a nano-second is one-billionth of a second. The maximum distance that electricity (or light) can travel in one nano-second is approximately one foot. How many seconds will it take to send an electronic signal from Earth to the Moon
