Resolution in "degrees"?
In the following scheme we see the channels spreadout of an absolute coder with 5 bits that works on a regular binary code. What's his resolution in degrees?

I don't ever recall measuring resolution in degrees.
However, I see the solution in the solution manual is just this: 360/25 = 11.25 degrees / bit
My question is simple...where did he take the 25 from? I see the numbers range from 0 till 31... excuse the bad quality.
