  2. Octal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octal

    Octal became widely used in computing when systems such as the UNIVAC 1050, PDP-8, ICL 1900 and IBM mainframes employed 6-bit, 12-bit, 24-bit or 36-bit words. Octal was an ideal abbreviation of binary for these machines because their word size is divisible by three (each octal digit represents three binary digits).

  3. Binary number - Wikipedia

    Binary is also easily converted to the octal numeral system, since octal uses a radix of 8, which is a power of two (namely, 2 3, so it takes exactly three binary digits to represent an octal digit). The correspondence between octal and binary numerals is the same as for the first eight digits of hexadecimal in the table above. Binary 000 is ...

    Octets can be represented using number systems of varying bases such as the hexadecimal, decimal, or octal number systems. The binary value of all eight bits set (or activated) is 11111111 2, equal to the hexadecimal value FF 16, the decimal value 255 10, and the octal value 377 8. One octet can be used to represent decimal values ranging from ...

    Each of these number systems is a positional system, but while decimal weights are powers of 10, the octal weights are powers of 8 and the hexadecimal weights are powers of 16. To convert from hexadecimal or octal to decimal, for each digit one multiplies the value of the digit by the value of its position and then adds the results. For example:
