    Me thinks it may be the ASCII code for 2? But isn't that 30something?

    I get the joke, but I've heard it before.

    I had to do some binary in school today, we had a final for microcontrolers, the M68HC12 to be specific. I had to know the manual like the back of my hand.

    Check out the instruction on page 288.

    Those who know binary, and those who don't.
    This quote is in someone's sig isn't it?

    Also did we ever find out what '2' in bianary ascii was. I'd look it up but

    Ah, the problem is that I believed this math. Where I come from, that makes 50.

    Which makes a lot of sense.

    00110010 = 50 Dec = 32 Hex = 2 ASCII.

    Um, he's quoting DF, who says "2", and giving, in binary, the ASCII code for the number 2.

    There's nothing wrong with being excited over a multimeter! If it's a Fluke, you most definitely have reason to be joyous!

    I got it. I swear I posted it 6 months ago, but maybe that was on another forum. But good jokes deserve to be retold!

    EDIT: I guess it was here: http://www.gotapex.com/forums/showth...threadid=45718
    Even had the same subject title!
