0050. How do we represent numeric values?

We actually saw how to represent numeric values before when we discussed the sequencing of bits:

00000000 = 0

+ 1

----------------------

00000001 = 1

+ 1

----------------------

00000010 = 2

+ 1

----------------------

00000011 = 3

+ 1

----------------------

00000100 = 4

And So forth. It is a simple logical progression.
