  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. 142857 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/142857

    The 142857 number sequence is also found in several decimals in which the denominator has a factor of 7. In the examples below, the numerators are all 1, however there are instances where it does not have to be, such as ⁠ 2 / 7 ⁠ (0. 285714). For example, consider the fractions and equivalent decimal values listed below: ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠ = 0 ...

  4. Control character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_character

    The other implementation is to take the ASCII code produced by the key and bitwise AND it with 0x1F, forcing bits 5 to 7 to zero. For example, pressing "control" and the letter "g" (which is 0110 0111 in binary), produces the code 7 (BELL, 7 in base ten, or 0000 0111 in binary). The NULL character (code 0) is represented by Ctrl-@, "@" being ...

  5. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    For example, in duodecimal, ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 0.6, ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ = 0.4, ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ = 0.3 and ⁠ 1 / 6 ⁠ = 0.2 all terminate; ⁠ 1 / 5 ⁠ = 0. 2497 repeats with period length 4, in contrast with the equivalent decimal expansion of 0.2; ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠ = 0. 186A35 has period 6 in duodecimal, just as it does in decimal. If b is an integer base ...

  6. ASCII - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII

    The X3.2.4 task group voted its approval for the change to ASCII at its May 1963 meeting. [18] Locating the lowercase letters in sticks [a] [15] 6 and 7 caused the characters to differ in bit pattern from the upper case by a single bit, which simplified case-insensitive character matching and the construction of keyboards and printers.

  7. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    A simple fraction (also known as a common fraction or vulgar fraction, where vulgar is Latin for "common") is a rational number written as a / b or ⁠ ⁠, where a and b are both integers. [9] As with other fractions, the denominator (b) cannot be zero. Examples include ⁠ 1 2 ⁠, − ⁠ 8 5 ⁠, ⁠ −8 5 ⁠, and ⁠ 8 −5 ⁠.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator

    1) Space, the internationally recommended thousands separator. 2) Period (or full stop), the thousands separator used in many non-English speaking countries. 3) Comma, the thousands separator used in most English-speaking countries. A decimal separator is a symbol that separates the integer part from the fractional part of a number written in ...

    Decimal. Place value of number in decimal system. The decimal numeral system (also called the base-ten positional numeral system and denary / ˈdiːnəri / [1] or decanary) is the standard system for denoting integer and non-integer numbers. It is the extension to non-integer numbers (decimal fractions) of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system.
