/sci/ - Science & Math

WELL OP HERE:
I understood. From the point of view of validating a string of 0 and 1 as either prime or not, author meant that for instance a coder wrote 0011101 in his program then a "lexical analyzer" would discard it declaring it not to be prime for simple reason because of pattern mismatching(Here the pattern to follow is that every number must start with 1 expect 0,Why? because for obvious reason that adding zero before any integer or even binary of that integer is useless. Why would a lexical analyzer keep track of zeros rather it would make a rule that every integer except zero must start with 1). I am god.

Here. Start using these against each other, and /sci/ will become a far better place.

Trust me, I'm a wizard.
