Decimal vs Binary The decimal numeral system in which numbers are expressed in scales of 10. Whereas the binary numeral system involves expressing numbers in scales of 2. Procedure Step 1: The whole number part(59) of 59.65625 is divided by 2 until the quotient is 1. The remainder(carry) that is accumulated(either 1 or 0) till the last sequence of operation that gives the quotient 1 is taken in the reverse order of creation, so as to obtain 111011.  59/2 = 29 (1 is taken as carry)  29/2 = 14 (1 is taken as carry)  14/2 = 7 (0 is taken as carry)  7/2 = 3 (1 is taken as carry)  3/2 = 1 (1 is taken as carry)  So when we reverse the carry, we get 11011. Finally, we place the final quotient at the very beginning of the 11011 to get 111011. Step 2: The decimal part is multiplied by 2 as many times as the number of decimal places in the final result required. To elaborate, let's take the above mentioned example of 59.65625. Here 0.65625...

The decimal numeral system in which numbers are expressed in scales of 10. Whereas the binary numeral system involves expressing numbers in scales of 2. Procedure: Suppose we want to convert decimal number 59 to binary. The number 59 is divided by 2 until the quotient is 1. The remainder(carry) that is accumulated(either 1 or 0) till the last sequence of operation that gives the quotient 1, is taken in the reverse order of creation so as to obtain 111011.  59/2 = 29 (1 is taken as carry)  29/2 = 14 (1 is taken as carry)  14/2 = 7 (1 is taken as carry)  7/2 = 3 (1 is taken as carry)  3/2 = 1 (1 is taken as carry)  So when we reverse the carry, we get 11011. Finally, we place the final quotient at the very beginning of the 11011 to get 111011.

Multiplication table   in mathematics is a list of multiples of a number from 1 to 10. According to Wikipedia, the Multiplication table is a mathematical table used to define a multiplication operation for an algebraic system. Procedure  Initially, the number whose multiplication table is to be displayed is received as input.  Then a list of multiples(up to 10) of the number is created by calling the function multiTable(num), with the received input as argument. Suppose the received input from the user is 7. In that case, the following list is created. prodList = [1, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70 ] Afterward, a counter(index) is added to the iterable(here prodList) using enumerate() method; which in turn returns as enumerate object. Finally, the multiplication table is printed based on the counter and the iterable. Source Code prodList = [] def multiTable(num):     """"     Creates a list of multiples of...
