TWO-CARROT-EX, by Owen Thomas (warmly)

i haven't doubled anything until i've doubled *one* time. and so i'll start with one and then go on to have a fun time.

one and one are two (so few?) and two and two are four (that's more). eight (that's great!), sixteen... but wait!

what *are* these calculations?

"exponentiation" is a mouthful but all it means is "multiply by two". by two, by two, by two, by two: just "multiply by two". by two, by two, by two, by two: just multiply-by-two.

thirty-two and sixty-four, and then one-twenty-eight, two-fifty-six... and so on... (they're fun to calculate).

two-to-the-zero is one (why not?) and two-to-the-one is two (one two!) two-to-the-two is four (a lot!) and two-to-the-three is eight. now you!

by two, by two, by two, by two just "multiply by two". by two, by two, by two, by two just multiply-by-two!
