With your fingers normally you can display binary. Your first finger is 1 or 0, then so on. 1,3,7,15,31,63,127,255,511,1023 on 2 hands. This is with counting each finger as a whole and not half.

I thought that went up to 1024 so I may be off by 1 in some of the later stuff I typed, thanks for the heads up

I figured it out verrry early in life. I can count to 31 on one hand as easily as counting to 5 on one hand. I just can’t get my hands to work for 1023.

This was my first thought when seeing this, as it’s the most on/off bit efficient way to store numbers. Then I was thinking about that finger segment way of counting and how I could do binary and that at the same time, or at least find away to do more than one “bit” with one finger. What I came up with was sorta one on/off being your finger being flat with your hand or pointed up, and the another on/off being the finger curled.

 ![IMG_0335](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/8/b/8bcbd039a115de82db5c3d83c66ee9f1aeaee12a.jpeg)  
This can also be done with the thumb fairly easily. Using this with the binary method, that’s (2^20) - 1 or a maximum of 1,048,575 highest count! With the binary method, every time we add another on/off (a “bit”) it _ **doubles** _ the maximum possible number, so you could think about curling your wrists at some point and maybe that adds two more bits, doubling that number twice! Really, the binary method is just overpowered in this challenge, which is why it’s used in computers!

Jamiroquai fun fact of the day: all of their live performances tie into upcoming albums (Glastonbury and Montreux Jazz Festival 1995 for Return of the Space Cowboy, Royal Albert Hall for Traveling Without Moving, Woodstock '99 for Synkronized, etc.)
