The only known powers of 2 with all digits even are 2^1 = 2, 2^2 = 4, 2^3 = 8, 2^6 = 64 and 2^11 = 2048. [11] The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2^4 = 16, 2^5 = 32 and 2^9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2^n should have n of at least 6 digits.
Nearly all modern CPUs represent numbers in binary form, with each digit being represented by some two-valued physical quantity such as a "high" or "low" voltage. [g] A six-bit word containing the binary encoded representation of decimal value 40. Most modern CPUs employ word sizes that are a power of two, for example 8, 16, 32 or 64 bits.
The fractional part is the reciprocal of 93 / 43 which is about 2.1628. Use the integer part, 2, as an approximation for the reciprocal to obtain a second approximation of 4 + 1 / 2 = 4.5. Now, 93 / 43 = 2 + 7 / 43 ; the remaining fractional part, 7 / 43 , is the reciprocal of 43 / 7 , and 43 / 7 ...

In terms of amenities, in 1975 an estimated 2% of all houses in the U.S. were without a flush toilet, 1% without electric lighting, 3% without a fixed bath or shower and 1% without piped water. [37] In 1977 an estimated 59% of the population of Canada lived in a detached house, while 8% lived in an attached house, and 33% in an apartment or ...
Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (or Leibnitz; [a] 1 July 1646 [O.S. 21 June] – 14 November 1716) was a German polymath active as a mathematician, philosopher, scientist and diplomat who is credited, alongside Sir Isaac Newton, with the creation of calculus in addition to many other branches of mathematics, such as binary arithmetic, and statistics.
In the widely accepted ΛCDM cosmological model, dark matter accounts for about 25.8% ± 1.1% of the mass and energy in the universe while about 69.2% ± 1.2% is dark energy, a mysterious form of energy responsible for the acceleration of the expansion of the universe. [17] Ordinary ('baryonic') matter therefore composes only 4.84% ± 0.1% of ...
Isaac Asimov (/ ˈ æ z ɪ m ɒ v / AZ-ih-mov; [b] c. January 2, 1920 [a] – April 6, 1992) was an American writer and professor of biochemistry at Boston University.During his lifetime, Asimov was considered one of the "Big Three" science fiction writers, along with Robert A. Heinlein and Arthur C. Clarke. [2]
