Oh, for those still following along:
"10 types of people" but only two are listed, right?
Binary works like this. Only ones and zeros in binary, so as it counts up, the MSD (most significant digit) moves to the left.
For example.
0000 = 0
0001 = 1
0010 = 2
0011 = 3
0100 = 4
0101 = 5
0110 = 6
0111 = 7
1000 = 8
etc...
So "10" types of people in binary is really "2" types of people in decimal.
