No honestly, I know someone who can read hex (nearly) as quickly as he can read plain text... it's mad to watch. I know someone else who can read ROT-13 encrypted text so fast that it's almost indistinguishable from him reading normal English.

are we talking about people with autism or something of the like? i cant imagine anyone of a normal intelligence being able to process that stuff that fast - ive done hex and oct and binary in programming and stuff - but i dunno, even the smartest mathematicians and programmers i know still have a hard time doing it that fast.

There are 2 types of people, those that know binary and hex and just get on with their lives and those that have to go round congratulating each other on having learnt it and making cringe-inducing "jokes" about it.

The hex guy is a computer lecturer, his area of special interest is looking at things at disk level. Subsequently, he spends a lot time looking at hex stuff. Over time he has come to recognise the hex equivalents for ascii characters (even I was recognising the common things like .exe, .com very quickly when I did some work on the subject).
The rot13 guy has just been using the net since the early days and again, learnt the plaintext equivalents. He recognises common words in rot13 almost as fast as he would english ones. Of course, if he encounters a new word (say, an unusual name) it'll take him a second to look at it letter by letter, but it doesn't slow him down much.

It's just like base 10, decimal, except you can only use two symbols. 1 and not 1, otherwise known as 0.
like 23 is '2x10 + 3x1'
10101110 is '1x128 + 0x64 + 1x32 + 0x16 + 1x8 + 1x4 + 1x2 + 0x1'

no, I think you were the only one thinking 'gay code'
graycode is a different counting method. see if you can see how it is determined. I couldn't figure it out myself:
decimal, regular binary, and reflective graycode on the far right:
0 0000 0000 1 0001 0001 2 0010 0011 3 0011 0010 4 0100 0110 5 0101 0111 6 0110 0101 7 0111 0100 8 1000 1100 9 1001 1101 10 1010 1111 11 1011 1110 12 1100 1010 13 1101 1011 14 1110 1001 15 1111 1000
