For example, you can represent the number 10 in binary as 1010.<br /><br />So all it needs is 1 bit for every place holder. If you cut the chain 1-2 and 3-4, you will have chains of length 1,2, and 4. Now you have the binary representations 001, 010, 100. With these 3, you can come up with any number till 7 using various combinations.Madan Kumarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08995567009390429357noreply@blogger.com
