In this video, I give some background of how the 0's and 1's are organized within the int data type. In particular, we talk about the binary representation of numbers. That is useful to know for a practitioner who works with numbers all day. The next video continues this discussion in the context of floating-point numbers and reveals how those are inherently imprecise!
