  2. Alt code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_code

    Alt code. On personal computers with numeric keypads that use Microsoft operating systems, such as Windows, many characters that do not have a dedicated key combination on the keyboard may nevertheless be entered using the Alt code (the Alt numpad input method). This is done by pressing and holding the Alt key, then typing a number on the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-bit_computing

    32. 64. 128. v. t. e. 4-bit computing is the use of computer architectures in which integers and other data units are 4 bits wide. 4-bit central processing unit (CPU) and arithmetic logic unit (ALU) architectures are those that are based on registers or data buses of that size. A group of four bits is also called a nibble and has 2 4 = 16 ...

    The smallest base greater than binary such that no three-digit narcissistic number exists. 80: Octogesimal: Used as a sub-base in Supyire. 85: Ascii85 encoding. This is the minimum number of characters needed to encode a 32 bit number into 5 printable characters in a process similar to MIME-64 encoding, since 85 5 is only slightly bigger than 2 ...

  6. 6174 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6174

    All other four-digit numbers eventually reach 6174 if leading zeros are used to keep the number of digits at 4. For numbers with three identical digits and a fourth digit that is one higher or lower (such as 2111), it is essential to treat 3-digit numbers with a leading zero; for example: 2111 – 1112 = 0999; 9990 – 999 = 8991; 9981 – 1899 ...

  7. United States license plate designs and serial formats

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_license...

    Formats for license plate numbers are consistent within the state. For example, Delaware is able to use six-digit all-numeric serials because of its low population. Several states, particularly those with higher populations, use seven-character formats of three letters and four digits, including 1ABC234 in California, 1234ABC in Kansas and ABC-1234 (with or without a space or dash) in Georgia ...

  8. Mnemonic major system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonic_major_system

    The major system (also called the phonetic number system, phonetic mnemonic system, or Hérigone's mnemonic system) is a mnemonic technique used to help in memorizing numbers. The system works by converting numbers into consonants, then into words by adding vowels. The system works on the principle that images can be remembered more easily than ...

  9. Kaprekar's routine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaprekar's_routine

    As an example, starting with the number 8991 in base 10: 9981 – 1899 = 8082 8820 – 0288 = 8532 8532 – 2358 = 6174 7641 – 1467 = 6174. 6174, known as Kaprekar's constant, is a fixed point of this algorithm. Any four-digit number (in base 10) with at least two distinct digits will reach 6174 within seven iterations. [1]
