Symbols:
Start with a dash:
This is zero.
Now add some lines for the numbers:
This is one.
This is two.
Combine one and two to make three:
This is three.
Invert one and two to make four and eight:
This is four.
This is eight.
As with three, combine one and four to make five:
This is five.
Combine one, two, four and eight to make the last digit:
This is fifteen (0xF).
Now we can count from 0 to F:
