Answer: Binary Secret #113

The secret message is:

BOLT

Row by row

Row	Bulbs	Add the ‘on’ numbers	Character
1	00010	2 = 2	B
2	01111	8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 15	O
3	01100	8 + 4 = 12	L
4	10100	16 + 4 = 20	T

Crack it with Python

Python can do the adding for you. int(code, 2) reads a string of 1s and 0s as a binary number. Then the program finds that letter in the alphabet. It takes away 1 because Python counts the letters from 0.

secret = [
    "00010",
    "01111",
    "01100",
    "10100",
]
letters = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
message = ""
for code in secret:
    number = int(code, 2)
    message = message + letters[number - 1]
print(message)

When you run it, it prints:

BOLT
