Binary number and overflow is repeated for each digit of significance. Counting progresses as follows: Binary counting follows the same procedure, except that only the two symbols "0" and "1" are available. Thus, after a digit reaches 1 in binary, an increment resets it to 0 but also causes an increment of the next digit to the left: In the binary system, each digit represents an increasing power of 2, with the rightmost digit representing 2, the next representing 2, then 2, and so on. The equivalent decimal representation of a binary number is sum of the powers of 2 which each
Fat binary the data fork, in PEF format. Fat binaries were larger than programs supporting only the PowerPC or 68k, which led to the creation of a number of utilities that would strip out the unneeded version. In the era of small hard drives, when 80 MB hard drives were a common size, these utilities were sometimes useful, as program code was generally a large percentage of overall drive usage, and stripping the unneeded members of a fat binary would free up a significant amount of space on a hard drive. Fat binaries were a feature of NeXT's NeXTSTEP/OPENSTEP operating system, starting
