(For Dec 25/11) SING-ALONG 01 Math-Tans present.... "Decimal" (*aka "Deck The Hall", Traditional Carol) -------- Karaoke Piano Reference: YouTube Here  Decadent's our base 10 system, 1-2-3-4-5, 6-7-8-9. And there's zero, well, we've missed him, 1-2-3-4-5, 6-7-8-9. 1-2-3, 4-5-6, 7-8-9. Picture math with one less finger, 1-2-3-4-5, 6-7-8-9.  See computer hexadecimal, A-B-C-D-E, F is fifteen. Power of two makes it optimal, A-B-C-D-E, F is fifteen. If you have a bit of doubt, A-B-C, D-E-F, is fifteen. Binary's another route, A-B-C-D-E, F is fifteen.  Faster ways use modulo math, Zero 1 and 2, Zero-1-2. Use a prime, it's the best path, Zero 1 and 2, Zero-1-2. Fermat's Little Theorem's useful, Zero-1, Zero-1, Zero-1. All your counting's now so fruitful, Zero-1-2-3, for you and me.  |
