REVIEW:
"1 + 1 = 10 Computer Number Bases" was originally published by Williamsville Publishing Company as part of their popular computer math Tape'nText series. It has been adapted and republished by Hershey Books and printed by CreateSpace. Material in "Computer Number Bases" was submitted for review in "The Mathematics Teacher" and received praise - "The development is well done."

ABOUT THE BOOK:
"Computer Number Bases" covers Base Ten (Decimal), Base Two (Binary), Base Eight (Octal) and Base 16 (Hexadecimal). These four number systems are important to gain insight into how computer systems operate internally. Binary Arithmetic is introduced after a thorough study of the underlying structure of each of the four computer number bases. Questions are listed in exercises at the end of each section and the answer key is conveniently located after each exercise. This book is part of the "Computer Mathematics Series" that also includes: "Sets and Flowcharts," "Introduction to Logic," and "Boolean Algebra and Switching Circuits." The four titles in the series give an excellent introduction to these topics and provide a firm foundation for beginners to study more advanced topics in computer mathematics.
