I said I included it "so he could check it and see how the list was generated". Not to teach him how the binary system works. I did not assume any level of knowledge about the binary system on his side. If he has no clue how it (or the code) works he can simply ignore it and just use the list. If he has some knowledge he might be by the code clued into something that he was overlooking. Or somebody like you could have spotted an error in it and pointed that out. After all it was a quick and dirty hack, written in five minutes. Just to use it now and be done with. And to be short to fit nicely on one page of an email without trying to win a prize in the IOCCC.
