base10 = dicimal and Hexadicimal is also 3 also 3 in octal system -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 5, 13:21 1
- ooh, yes, I was forgetting about octal. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 5, 13:26
but then the argument would be what 1/11 is not what 1/3 is.... -- nm - crash davis Mar 5, 13:19 4
- I'm just trying to say, it's the exact same argument. Changing the base only changes the pictographs, not the values. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 5, 13:23 2
  - and I'm just trying to say a real simple joke went right over your head -- nm - crash davis Mar 5, 13:25 1
    - oh. dang. sorry about that, then. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 5, 13:27
- there is no decimal pont in binary it soes not excist -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 5, 13:22
(and it's 3 in hexadecimal and base-60 as well) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 5, 13:18
