072 101 108 108 111 032 087 111 114 108 100... with Optional 032 or 046.

There seems to be no other Thread (upon NAS) discussing this as a Topic, or Hobby, or its fancies... despite everyone who can read this actually doing it or using it.

    Hello world .


    (Dear DC thank you for starting this thread.
    It may give humour to those that understand,it may cause concern to those who do not,as spotty tortoise has said she felt intimidated.)

    The numbers above refer to the text directly below it. A translation if you like.

    Nothing sinister or to be intimidated about,sorry if it upsets.

    The above string of three digit numerical character sets is in its most basic of terms is a language used by computers to function. It is written by humans as a set of commands to create what we use.

    A bit like Morse code!

    SOS     ... --- ...

    we do happen to have many multi talented members who rarely get credit for the work they do, those who work with programming computer software and finding faults in its code that others may have put in by mistake. A very complex task which only knowledgeable and talented people excell  at.

    we take using technologies for granted but hidden beneath all we can see is code, a language used by computers,thier are various types but this is maybe the oldest.

    I only recently discovered it myself. It is I hope used on here as a kind of friendly exchange between any one who happens to understand it in a light hearted way to another.

    I do not fully understand it myself. 

    I saw it,wanted to know what it stood for and researched it, something I like to do.

    sorry if it offends anyone that was never my intention.()x

    • No problem. In your example, I enjoyed trying to see the images pixillated by the same groups of digits. I got as far as a soaring red kite. I sort of get interested in coding occasionally. And do a bit for a few days. But maps tend to pull my chain the most. There is certainly some beauty in numbers, but I tend to enjoy geometry just a bit more. But being just a bit dyscalculaic, that interest in geometry and mapping tends to centre on stuff like setting out the foundations of a new building, drawing a simple map or fairly basic navigation. I wish mathematicians would start with practical skills, and teach the theory through workaday tasks of gradually increasing complexity. The beauty of geometry is in such tasks. I was started on times tables, and after 3 years of that approach, it was suddenly decided we needed to learn binary. At no point were the practical uses of that ever really explained. Net result, the whole class failed 11 plus in the last year of that exam. The failures included a forensics prof, a primatologist and an educational assessor. 
  • Hi Senior Moment I do not cope well with numbers, I have limited working memory area,in-short a small loading/ unloading bay to put things on ready to store or load up for delivery.Dyslexic traits.

    I am fascinated by series of numbers specifically even numbers?.

    I count continually as a stress reliever,,,Well if I am stressed then I count,so white lines along short interchanges,how many tiles on an end gable of a roof, how many parallel wires on a heras fence panel. It helps my mind to stop focusing on whatever is causing me stress at the time, it does exhaust me mentally but I am compelled to do it.

    My memory has little instant recall ability to remember say more than three or four sets of triple numerical  digits.

    My father was an amazing mathematician,a good book keeper who had to write everything down x2. Two books one for the client and one for tax purposes! No don’t ask Lol. He added up long series of figures in his head only using a mechanical adding machine to create a till roll copy.

  • Interesting. I also have similar issues, but perhaps a bit less than you. My father was good at numbers. My grandfather was a sort of engineer. I also like mechanical skills, despite my even more pronounced dyspraxia. To put it simply, I like fixing stuff, but I'm clumsy and ill-coordinated in body and mind. I also count in the mind and on the lips while doing tasks that seem to offer some relaxation and organisation. And that mental loading bay is so small that I frequently misplace the next number in the sequence. Then I either rip it up and start again or repeat the last number until the next is recalled. But none of this is really alarming. I'd argue that most people experience this at some time. I have even been complemented on my ability to calculate. The thought of the commentator was that most people would have walked to find a calculator. My response was that it it had all been done with very messy and long-winded written-down back-of-a-packet calcs.
