| The expression of numerical quantities is something we tend 
    to take for granted. This is both a good and a bad thing in the study of 
    electronics. It is good, in that we're accustomed to the use and 
    manipulation of numbers for the many calculations used in analyzing 
    electronic circuits. On the other hand, the particular system of notation 
    we've been taught from grade school onward is not the system used 
    internally in modern electronic computing devices, and learning any 
    different system of notation requires some re-examination of deeply 
    ingrained assumptions.
