16 and 32 Bit Basics

16 Bits

Note: 16 bits can represent numbers from 0 to 65,535 (2^16 - 1).

Decimal	Binary
0	0000000000000000
1	0000000000000001
2	0000000000000010
3	0000000000000011
4	0000000000000100
5	0000000000000101
6	0000000000000110
7	0000000000000111
8	0000000000001000
9	0000000000001001
10	0000000000001010

32 Bits

Note: 32 bits can represent numbers from 0 to 4,294,967,295 (2^32 - 1). Full binary representation for numbers larger than 16 bits is quite lengthy, so only the least significant 16 bits are shown for brevity.
