2. Positional notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation

   Place values are the number of the base raised to the nth power, where n is the number of other digits between a given digit and the radix point. If a given digit is on the left hand side of the radix point (i.e. its value is an integer ) then n is positive or zero; if the digit is on the right hand side of the radix point (i.e., its value is ...

3. Engineering notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_notation

   Engineering notation or engineering form (also technical notation) is a version of scientific notation in which the exponent of ten is always selected to be divisible by three to match the common metric prefixes, i.e. scientific notation that aligns with powers of a thousand, for example, 531×10 3 instead of 5.31×10 5 (but on calculator displays written without the ×10 to save space).

4. Sign-value notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign-value_notation

   A sign-value notation represents numbers using a sequence of numerals which each represent a distinct quantity, regardless of their position in the sequence. Sign-value notations are typically additive, subtractive, or multiplicative depending on their conventions for grouping signs together to collectively represent numbers.

5. Number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number

   In this base 10 system, the rightmost digit of a natural number has a place value of 1, and every other digit has a place value ten times that of the place value of the digit to its right. In set theory, which is capable of acting as an axiomatic foundation for modern mathematics, [35] natural numbers can be represented by classes of equivalent ...

6. Natural number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_number

   The first ordinal number that is not a natural number is expressed as ω; this is also the ordinal number of the set of natural numbers itself. The least ordinal of cardinality ℵ 0 (that is, the initial ordinal of ℵ 0 ) is ω but many well-ordered sets with cardinal number ℵ 0 have an ordinal number greater than ω .

7. Signed number representations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_number_representations

   In the sign–magnitude representation, also called sign-and-magnitude or signed magnitude, a signed number is represented by the bit pattern corresponding to the sign of the number for the sign bit (often the most significant bit, set to 0 for a positive number and to 1 for a negative number), and the magnitude of the number (or absolute value ...
