STEPHEN BARNES lifts the Hex on binary for machine code beginners BINARY Trainer was written with newcomers to machine code in mind and is designed to test and help their knowledge of binary and hexadecimal numbers. The program first of all displays a menu of six options. The first three allow you to choose to practice either decimal, hexadecimal or binary numbers. A series of numbers will then be displayed in the two number systems not chosen. You have to give their equivalent in the system you wish to practise. The fourth demonstration option prints all numbers from 1 to 255 in all three forms so that you can compare them. At any time the sequence can be paused or abandoned altogether. Option five, the quiz, chooses numbers at random and then prints them out in two of the formats leaving you to work out the third. The last option, quit, allows you to leave the program neatly.
