  2. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    With decimal arithmetic, final digits of 0 and 5 are avoided; if there is a choice between numbers with the least significant digit 0 or 1, 4 or 5, 5 or 6, 9 or 0, then the digit different from 0 or 5 shall be selected; otherwise, the choice is arbitrary. IBM defines that, in the latter case, a digit with the smaller magnitude shall be selected ...

  3. Methods of computing square roots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_computing...

    A method analogous to piece-wise linear approximation but using only arithmetic instead of algebraic equations, uses the multiplication tables in reverse: the square root of a number between 1 and 100 is between 1 and 10, so if we know 25 is a perfect square (5 × 5), and 36 is a perfect square (6 × 6), then the square root of a number greater than or equal to 25 but less than 36, begins with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-16

    UTF-16 (16-bit Unicode Transformation Format) is a character encoding that supports all 1,112,064 valid code points of Unicode. [1] [a] The encoding is variable-length as code points are encoded with one or two 16-bit code units.

  6. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    Hexadecimal (also known as base-16 or simply hex) is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.

  7. Ternary numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_numeral_system

    As for rational numbers, ternary offers a convenient way to represent ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ as same as senary (as opposed to its cumbersome representation as an infinite string of recurring digits in decimal); but a major drawback is that, in turn, ternary does not offer a finite representation for ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ (nor for ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠, ⁠ 1 / 8 ...

  8. Signed-digit representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed-digit_representation

    In mathematical notation for numbers, a signed-digit representation is a positional numeral system with a set of signed digits used to encode the integers.. Signed-digit representation can be used to accomplish fast addition of integers because it can eliminate chains of dependent carries. [1]

  9. Quaternary numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternary_numeral_system

    As with the octal and hexadecimal numeral systems, quaternary has a special relation to the binary numeral system.Each radix four, eight, and sixteen is a power of two, so the conversion to and from binary is implemented by matching each digit with two, three, or four binary digits, or bits.
