| Jan 13, 2016 at 8:59 | comment | added | Ravi | Great method to convert mentally from decimal to binary. Other methods mentioned works in a reverse order, i.e. when one finishes the division by 2, that last remainder is the 1st digit from left side in the binary number (so difficult to do mentally). Rui F Ribeiro you mentioned in a comment that for dealing with short numbers, there is a simpler strategy. Please mention that also here if it is other than this. | |
