Been there. Done all this for him. But he still doesn't grasp the concept.
Ah well, it was worth a go :-)
Maybe he's just getting confused by the terminology, which
is why he's wondering why it's base 2 when there are no 2s,
just ones and zeros? Are there any software learning tools
which might help him I wonder?
