[HiPerCoPS] Google "in binary" Searches

During my research, I've come to rely heavily on the Google Calculator. Since I usually have a web browser, this is the easiest way for me to do conversions involving decimal, binary, and hexadecimal numbers. Here are some examples:

 
"256 in binary" gives
 

256 = 0b100000000

 
"255 in hexadecimal" gives 
 

255 = 0xF


"0b00101011101010101010101101010100101 in decimal" gives
 

0b00101011101010101010101101010100101 = 5 860 842 149


Very useful. Thanks, Google!
