  2. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    For example, to convert the number B3AD to decimal, one can split the hexadecimal number into its digits: B (11 10), 3 (3 10), A (10 10) and D (13 10), and then get the final result by multiplying each decimal representation by 16 p (p being the corresponding hex digit position, counting from right to left, beginning with 0). In this case, we ...

  3. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    To convert a hexadecimal number into its binary equivalent, simply substitute the corresponding binary digits: 3A 16 = 0011 1010 2 E7 16 = 1110 0111 2. To convert a binary number into its hexadecimal equivalent, divide it into groups of four bits. If the number of bits isn't a multiple of four, simply insert extra 0 bits at the left (called ...

    6.2 Binary-to-decimal conversion with minimal number of digits. ... In base-2 only rationals with denominators that are powers of 2 (such as 1/2 or 3/16) are ...

  5. Double dabble - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_dabble

    In computer science, the double dabble algorithm is used to convert binary numbers into binary-coded decimal (BCD) notation. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is also known as the shift-and-add -3 algorithm , and can be implemented using a small number of gates in computer hardware, but at the expense of high latency .

    For example, 10 2 = 2; 10 3 = 3; 10 16 = 16 10. Note that the last "16" is indicated to be in base 10. ... In addition, prior to its conversion to decimal, the old ...

  7. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    A repeating decimal or recurring decimal is a decimal representation of a number whose digits are eventually periodic (that is, after some place, the same sequence of digits is repeated forever); if this sequence consists only of zeros (that is if there is only a finite number of nonzero digits), the decimal is said to be terminating, and is not considered as repeating.

  8. Balanced ternary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_ternary

    In the balanced ternary system the value of a digit n places left of the radix point is the product of the digit and 3 n. This is useful when converting between decimal and balanced ternary. In the following the strings denoting balanced ternary carry the suffix, bal3. For instance, 10 bal3 = 1 × 3 1 + 0 × 3 0 = 3 dec

  9. Ternary numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_numeral_system

    For example, decimal 365 (10) or senary 1 405 (6) corresponds to binary 1 0110 1101 (2) (nine bits) and to ternary 111 112 (3) (six digits). However, they are still far less compact than the corresponding representations in bases such as decimal – see below for a compact way to codify ternary using nonary (base 9) and septemvigesimal (base 27).
