  2. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    The base-2 numeral system is a positional notation with a radix of 2.Each digit is referred to as a bit, or binary digit.Because of its straightforward implementation in digital electronic circuitry using logic gates, the binary system is used by almost all modern computers and computer-based devices, as a preferred system of use, over various other human techniques of communication, because ...

  3. Non-integer base of numeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-integer_base_of_numeration

    Base2 behaves in a very similar way to base 2 as all one has to do to convert a number from binary into base2 is put a zero digit in between every binary digit; for example, 1911 10 = 11101110111 2 becomes 101010001010100010101 √ 2 and 5118 10 = 1001111111110 2 becomes 1000001010101010101010100 √ 2.

  4. Numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_system

    The positional systems are classified by their base or radix, which is the number of symbols called digits used by the system. In base 10, ten different digits 0, ..., 9 are used and the position of a digit is used to signify the power of ten that the digit is to be multiplied with, as in 304 = 3×100 + 0×10 + 4×1 or more precisely 3×10 2 ...

    // Iterating through a sequence of values would result in a sequence // of Gray codes in which only one digit changes at a time. void toGray (unsigned base, unsigned digits, unsigned value, unsigned gray [digits]) {unsigned baseN [digits]; // Stores the ordinary base-N number, one digit per entry unsigned i; // The loop variable // Put the ...

  6. Change of base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_of_base

    In mathematics, change of base can mean any of several things: Changing numeral bases, such as converting from base 2 to base 10 . This is known as base conversion. The logarithmic change-of-base formula, one of the logarithmic identities used frequently in algebra and calculus.

    The most significant digit (10) is "dropped": 10 1 0 11 <- Digits of 0xA10B ----- 10 Then we multiply the bottom number from the source base (16), the product is placed under the next digit of the source value, and then add: 10 1 0 11 160 ----- 10 161 Repeat until the final addition is performed: 10 1 0 11 160 2576 41216 ----- 10 161 2576 41227 ...

    As 100=10 2, these are two decimal digits. 121: Number expressible with two undecimal digits. 125: Number expressible with three quinary digits. 128: Using as 128=2 7. [clarification needed] 144: Number expressible with two duodecimal digits. 169: Number expressible with two tridecimal digits. 185

  9. Signed number representations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_number_representations

    In the base2 representation, a signed number is represented using a number system with base2. In conventional binary number systems, the base, or radix, is 2; thus the rightmost bit represents 2 0, the next bit represents 2 1, the next bit 2 2, and so on. However, a binary number system with base2 is also possible.
