  2. Octal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octal

    To convert octals to decimals, prefix the number with "0.". Perform the following steps for as long as digits remain on the right side of the radix: Double the value to the left side of the radix, using decimal rules, move the radix point one digit rightward, and then place the doubled value underneath the current value so that the radix points ...

  3. Method of complements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_complements

    To subtract a decimal number y (the subtrahend) from another number x (the minuend) two methods may be used: In the first method, the nines' complement of x is added to y. Then the nines' complement of the result obtained is formed to produce the desired result. In the second method, the nines' complement of y is added to x and one is added to ...

    Split octal is an unusual address notation used by Heathkit's PAM8 and portions of HDOS for the Heathkit H8 in the late 1970s (and sometimes up to the present). [6] [7] It was also used by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC).

  5. Catastrophic cancellation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catastrophic_cancellation

    Catastrophic cancellation may happen even if the difference is computed exactly, as in the example above—it is not a property of any particular kind of arithmetic like floating-point arithmetic; rather, it is inherent to subtraction, when the inputs are approximations themselves.

  6. Cancelling out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancelling_out

    This is equivalent to subtracting 2y from both sides. At times, cancelling out can introduce limited changes or extra solutions to an equation . For example, given the inequality ab ≥ 3 b , it looks like the b on both sides can be cancelled out to give a ≥ 3 as the solution.
