How would you pronounce this:

There are only 10 kinds of people in the world:
those who understand binary,

I went back to college in '72, and took "Basic Structures of Mathematics and Algebra," which turned out to be more learning about bases and place value than anything else. I was intrigued to discover all kinds of things that had never been taught in any math class I'd experienced before. I loved it! I finally understood what I was doing.

Is that the class for which the textbook was "Mathematics, a Human Endeavor" by Harold Jacobs?

Possibly. I don't recall.
I guess it's been too long ago.
