  2. Power of two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two

    Two to the power of n, written as 2 n, is the number of values in which the bits in a binary word of length n can be set, where each bit is either of two values. A word, interpreted as representing an integer in a range starting at zero, referred to as an "unsigned integer", can represent values from 0 (000...000 2) to 2 n − 1 (111...111 2) inclusively.

    Graphs of y = b x for various bases b: base 10, base e, base 2, base ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠. Each curve passes through the point (0, 1) because any nonzero number raised to the power of 0 is 1. At x = 1, the value of y equals the base because any number raised to the power of 1 is the number itself.

    1.1030402 × 10 5 = 1.1030402 × 100000 = 110304.02. or, more compactly: 1.1030402E5. which means "1.1030402 times 1 followed by 5 zeroes". We have a certain numeric value (1.1030402) known as a "significand", multiplied by a power of 10 (E5, meaning 10 5 or 100,000), known as an "exponent". If we have a negative exponent, that means the number ...

  5. Negative base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_base

    A negative base (or negative radix) may be used to construct a non-standard positional numeral system.Like other place-value systems, each position holds multiples of the appropriate power of the system's base; but that base is negative—that is to say, the base b is equal to −r for some natural number r (r ≥ 2).

  6. Q (number format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_(number_format)

    The first bit always gives the sign of the value(1 = negative, 0 = non-negative), and it is not counted in the m parameter. Thus, the total number w of bits used is 1 + m + n . For example, the specification Q3.12 describes a signed binary fixed-point number with a w = 16 bits in total, comprising the sign bit, three bits for the integer part ...

  7. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    At this point, the representation is the ones' complement of the decimal value5. To obtain the two's complement, 1 is added to the result, giving: 1111 1011 2. The result is a signed binary number representing the decimal value5 in two's-complement form. The most significant bit is 1, so the value represented is negative.

    10 1 1 3 = 1 × 3 3 + 0 × 3 21 × 3 1 + 1 × 3 0 = 25. 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.

    By {{Convert}} default, the conversion result will be rounded either to precision comparable to that of the input value (the number of digits after the decimal point—or the negative of the number of non-significant zeroes before the point—is increased by one if the conversion is a multiplication by a number between 0.02 and 0.2, remains the ...
