4. There are 10 kinds of people
Those who know binary and those who don't.

I know it doesn't have much to do with the quiz, but it's my favorite Math Geek quip.

12. Almost. Since 16 is twice 8 and 7 is a prime number, they both must be odd.

8. I'm an other
'cause 2 times anything is twice as much where 16 and 8's only fall in to specific situations.

I like my oranges on the grill and my apples turnt to wine.

:hi:

9. Cannot answer.
"And" must be a bitwise operator as in ((2*7) & (16+8)).

So:
01110
&11000

The answer is 01000 = 8.

8.

:P

We really need a :nerd: smiley.
