Bikes: I built the Bianchi track bike back up today.
I had a wheel one time that was so bent the rim had snapped when it ran into my frame...
Does that count as bent?
Otherwise, they're just wobbley...

Though if you flip 'em over, they look quite happy. . .

A very practical interpretation is that the opposite of true is false. If you want to have useful data from your query, you should evaluate a good wheel as 1 and a bad wheel as 0. My bike's current wheel state is 11. My childhood trike is 110, read clockwise from front. My car is 1111. These numbers can also be represented in hexadecimal as 3, 6, and F. I recommend sticking with the binary data, however, to save bandwidth and storage space, assuming you use 8 bit characters.
Now class, can anyone tell the state in binary and hex of an 18-wheeler that ran over a set of tire spikes with it's left side only? Assume counting starts at the front right and moves clockwise around the vehicle, inside first. 10 percent extra credit for including a decimal answer.
I think I'm done for, like...the rest of the month.
