    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_system

    Numbers written in different numeral systems. A numeral system is a writing system for expressing numbers; that is, a mathematical notation for representing numbers of a given set, using digits or other symbols in a consistent manner. The same sequence of symbols may represent different numbers in different numeral systems.

  8. Positional notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation

    The factorial number system uses a varying radix, giving factorials as place values; they are related to Chinese remainder theorem and residue number system enumerations. This system effectively enumerates permutations. A derivative of this uses the Towers of Hanoi puzzle configuration as a counting system. The configuration of the towers can ...

  9. Mixed radix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_radix

    Mixed-radix numbers of the same base can be manipulated using a generalization of manual arithmetic algorithms. Conversion of values from one mixed base to another is easily accomplished by first converting the place values of the one system into the other, and then applying the digits from the one system against these.
