Story Lesson in binary numbers & having double careers!
$ 0The story is set in ancient India and follows a boy named Bhagat who wants to bring his family out of poverty by winning a place in the rajah’s court as a singer.
As it turns out, when it’s time for Bhagat to find a place to stay in the city, he is faced with a mathematical puzzle. He must pay the innkeeper one ring per night in advance, and it costs one coin to break one link in his chain of seven. But Bhagat only has a single coin, and he doesn’t know how many nights he will need to stay. How can Bhagat find a way to divide the chain of seven rings in order to pay one ring per night and avoid overpaying?
His inventive solution offers readers a friendly lesson in binary numbers–the root of all computing.
