100

*wild guess*

101?

Yup 101 is right it works just like counting in decimal except there are only two digits you can use. You advance the digit furthest to the right by 1, if that place is maxed out ( read already a 1 there) you start it back at 0 and carry the one to the next place to the left. if that place already has a one you keep carrying the one until you hit a 0. Remeber there are infinite implied zero's th the left.
