And i can count using my hands up to 1023 with the binary system :p
(gonna look into your system too, then i have more ways to count on me)

Edit: l like the babylonian system, it looks like a numpad but instead of having a row only for 0 its 10, 11 & 12
Easy to understand & remember too

My fingers aren't flexible enough for binary

[–] Little8Lost@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I think your hands should at least be flexible enough for 4 & 132 (its one (4) or booth (4+128) middlefingers)

when i count with binary i mostly just "drag" the finger a bit forward instead of complely folding it.
Its more comfortable and faster, i really just need to understand it myself what is on or off.

I was mostly thinking about 16-23
