What is the difference among BINARY, HEXADECIMAL, and DECIMAL?
Binary: “Binary Numbers are just “Base 2” instead of “Base 10”. So you start counting at 0, then 1, then you run out of digits … so you start back at 0 again, but increase the number on the left by 1.”2
Hexadecimals: “They look the same as the decimal numbers up to 9, but then there are the letters (“A’,”B”,”C”,”D”,”E”,”F”) in place of the decimal numbers 10 to 15.”2
Decimal:”A Decimal Number (based on the number 10) contains a Decimal Point.”3

What is the difference between inductive and deductive logic?
“A deductive argument is one in which it is impossible for the premises to be true but the conclusion false. Thus, the conclusion follows necessarily from the premises and inferences. In this way, it is supposed to be a definitive proof of the truth of the claim (conclusion), but an inductive argument is one in which the premises are supposed to support the conclusion in such a way that if the premises are true, it is improbablethat the conclusion would be false. Thus, the conclusion follows probably from the premises and inferences.”4.

What did you think about Honors Academy, Exploratory Math?
I really enjoyed Exploring Math eventhough I wasn’t here the whole time. I first started on Creative Writing but I wasn’t enjoying it as much, so I asked if I could switch to Exploring Maths and I’m glad I did it, It was extremely fun. Honestly I’m going to miss it.
