Binary number double the number to be converted, record if the result is at least 1, and then throw away the integer part. For example, formula_10, in binary, is: Thus the repeating decimal fraction 0... is equivalent to the repeating binary fraction 0... . Or for example, 0.1, in binary, is: This is also a repeating binary fraction 0.0... . It may come as a surprise that terminating decimal fractions can have repeating expansions in binary. It is for this reason that many are surprised to discover that 0.1 + ... + 0.1, (10 additions) differs from 1 in floating point arithmetic.
Kepler object of interest planet that is substantially larger than what is estimated by "Kepler". This occurs when there are sources of light other than simply the star being transited, such as in a binary system. In cases such as these, there is more surface area producing light than is assumed, so a given transit signal is larger than assumed. Since roughly 34% of stellar systems are binaries, up to 34% of KOI signals could be from planets within binary systems and, consequently, be larger than estimated (assuming planets are as likely to form in binary systems as they are in single star systems).
