Alright, I'm prepared to be called a total dumb a-- and to be ridiculed. This is a given so I'll just ask my questions anyone with a predisposition to be thick-skinned. I don't understand what digital code represents a Bitcoin. I do no understand this statement from The White Papers

"Each owner transfers the coin to the next by digitally signing a hash of the previous transaction and the public key of the next owner
and adding these to the end of the coin."

Does that mean an infinite amount of numbers are added to the end of the coin? I doubt this to be true but why isn't it? Again, what is then the original number that the "hash" is added onto? What's the algorithm the hash uses and how was this determined?

What about the timestamp server? The timestamp server takes a hash of a block(or group of transactions) and publishes it but how can it be deduced from the hash what block it refers to? Finally, does a block contain only one transaction? Any links or explanations would be well appreciated. Know that the only reason I want to learn about Bitcoins is because I despise the corruption of central banks as much as many here do, I'm sure.
