On the Subject of Binary LEDs
Binary is a time-honored tradition of communication with tiny blinking lights.
- Interpret the binary code from the five LEDs. The bit farthest left is the most significant.
- The code will follow one of the eight numeric sequences below. The sequence oscillates forwards and backwards without repeating the ends.
- Some numbers in the sequence have a letter underneath them. Cut the wire of the matching color while this part of the sequence is displayed.
- Only one wire needs to be cut successfully.
