Purpose: In this assignment we learned how to convert decimal numbers to binary form. This is a really crucial topic to learn because binary is the main language computers use. Moreover, computers are a huge part of our daily lives in this age.

Dicussion Question:

Why is there a need to convert numbers from Decimal to the Binary system?

There is a need to understand how to convert binary to decimal and vice-versa because that is the main language computers use to communicate. Knowing the computer's language is a really important skill to understand.

Copy of my Discussion Board Response:

There is a need to convert decimal numbers to binary because all values in a computer is stored as a long chain of binary numbers. If we don't know how to convert these numbers we wouldn't be able to effectively interact with computers. Not being able to properly interact with computers will result in losing all the benefits involved with computers.
