Mathematics and the Internet
7/17/08
We have a new face on Day #4 - Jason - because Mark has to run some errands. Half of today's work revolved around circuit boards, where the students have to build 1-bit memory and shift registers. They managed to build a simple scrolling LED too, which got everyone very excited. The second half of the class was mostly lectures by Jason on message encryption and the system called F256 that computers use to perform additions and multiplications.
