  2. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    As the number of bits composing a string increases, the number of possible 0 and 1 combinations increases exponentially. A single bit allows only two value-combinations, two bits combined can make four separate values, three bits for eight, and so on, increasing with the formula 2 n. The amount of possible combinations doubles with each binary ...

  3. Lottery mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lottery_mathematics

    A combination of numbers is usually presented in ascending order. An eventual 7th drawn number, the reserve or bonus, is presented at the end. An alternative method of calculating the odds is to note that the probability of the first ball corresponding to one of the six chosen is 6/49; the probability of the second ball corresponding to one of ...

  4. Lottery wheeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lottery_wheeling

    The following is an example of an abbreviated wheeling system for a pick-6 lottery with 10 numbers, 4 if 4 guarantee, and the minimum possible number of combinations for that guarantee (20). A template for an abbreviated wheeling system is given as 20 combinations on the numbers from 1 to 10.

  5. Combination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combination

    These combinations (subsets) are enumerated by the 1 digits of the set of base 2 numbers counting from 0 to 2 n − 1, where each digit position is an item from the set of n. Given 3 cards numbered 1 to 3, there are 8 distinct combinations , including the empty set:

  6. Combinatorial number system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_number_system

    The number associated in the combinatorial number system of degree k to a k-combination C is the number of k-combinations strictly less than C in the given ordering. This number can be computed from C = {c k, ..., c 2, c 1} with c k > ... > c 2 > c 1 as follows.

  7. 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.

  8. Aiken code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aiken_code

    Aiken code (symmetry property) Aiken code in hexadecimal coding. The following weighting is obtained for the Aiken code: 2-4-2-1. One might think that double codes are possible for a number, for example 1011 and 0101 could represent 5. However, here one makes sure that the digits 0 to 4 are mirror image complementary to the numbers 5 to 9.

    For use with a shorter keyboard or laptop which omits the numberpad Bluetooth numeric keypad, working also as calculator. A numeric keypad, number pad, numpad, or ten key, [1] [2] [3] is the palm-sized, usually-17-key section of a standard computer keyboard, usually on the far right. It provides calculator-style efficiency for entering numbers.
