Why don't you ask him? I want to know.

I have a feeling even if I asked I would not understand unless I asked lots of questions!

I did. He said it's a Text to Hexidecimal to Binary conversion, and then he wrote it on the paper so I wouldn't forget.

I still don't know what that is.

Well the paper itself is a chart of the hexadecimal values of each letter. It also has a little reminder on it but the rest is in my head. Like for the binary string 01000001 (Which is 'A') I would break that in half so I have two 4 digit strings. So now I would write '8 4 2 1' over each digit. Now where I see a '1' in my binary string I bring the number I just wrote on top and add it with other numbers I may have. Now I have to digits, in this case '4' and '1'. I simply make that '41' and take a look at my chart. 41 is the hexadecimal value of 'A'. Did I lose you?

-- 01010010 01111001 01100001 01101110

(Try it! Figure out what that says!)
