  2. Non-integer base of numeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-integer_base_of_numeration

    The base can also be used to show the relationship between the side of a square to its diagonal as a square with a side length of 1 √ 2 will have a diagonal of 102 and a square with a side length of 102 will have a diagonal of 100 √ 2. Another use of the base is to show the silver ratio as its representation in base2 is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:BaseConvert

    base - (required) the base to which the number should be converted. May be between 2 and 36, inclusive. from - the base of the input. Defaults to 10 (or 16 if the input has a leading '0x'). Note that bases other than 10 are not supported if the input has a fractional part. precision - number of digits to be rendered after the radix point ...

  4. 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.

  5. 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 ...

    For example, the base-8 numeral 23 8 contains two digits, "2" and "3", and with a base number (subscripted) "8". When converted to base-10, the 23 8 is equivalent to 19 10, i.e. 23 8 = 19 10. In our notation here, the subscript "8" of the numeral 23 8 is part of the numeral, but this may not always be the case.

    2.1.2 C++ code to convert skew binary ... For example, a decimal number 15 can be written as 1000, 201 and 122. ... the next digit from zero to one or one to two ...

  8. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

    Conversion of the simple sum of two digits can be done by adding 6 (that is, 16 − 10) when the five-bit result of adding a pair of digits has a value greater than 9. The reason for adding 6 is that there are 16 possible 4-bit BCD values (since 2 4 = 16), but only 10 values are valid (0000 through 1001).

  9. Sign extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_extension

    This is done by appending digits to the most significant side of the number, following a procedure dependent on the particular signed number representation used. For example, if six bits are used to represent the number " 00 1010 " (decimal positive 10) and the sign extends operation increases the word length to 16 bits, then the new ...
