Haha, I need to do my apples. O AO
Anyway, on the 10th.. we did Binary! Odd, isn't it, in a design class. But we do figure things out! Jimmy noticed the date was 11/10/10, 1s and 0s! He then wrote out some numbers and told us to figure it out.
0 - 0
1 - 1
2 - 10
3 - 11
4 - 100
5 - 101
6 - 110
7 - 111
8 - ???
I noticed that the ends of the numbers was always 0, 1, 0, 1.... And it continued. The difficulty was figuring out 8! There are several patterns it could go, and the thing is-- we didn't have enough information to say that ONE of those patterns was the correct one. When Jimmy came back into the room to ask what we thought was the correct answer, the class was split between "certain" and "not quite" and one "it's totally wrong".
I went with certain, because it was logical to me. I could use my logic-- "following the pattern of 0 to 3, we add a 1 to the beginning of the each set (4-7, 8-11, etc) following the one before". I could draw a table for it, but eh. XD
Afterwards, without telling us the answer, we went through with the rest of the 10 images, 1 headline. They did majorly better than ours. I was especially interested in the apple one, because it was very... story-like.
