Whats that old binary code thing? it has both a 1 and a 0 like in binary but also a -1. I was talking to the A.P of math and science in my school and he mentioned it while we were talking about plain binary, but I did not have time to ask for its name.

Right thats how you express a negative number in binary, but thats not what I meant. What I was looking for is Trinary.

Does it go by any other names? Where could I find more information about it?
