    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bull_Gamma_3

    The Gamma 3 was an early electronic vacuum-tube computer.It was designed by Compagnie des Machines Bull in Paris, France and released in 1952.. Originally designed as an electronic accelerator for electromechanical tabulating machines, similar to the IBM 604, it was gradually enhanced with new features and evolved into a first-generation stored program computer (Gamma AET, 1955, then ET, 1957).

    With the ubiquity of the calculator I think the overall simplicity of decimal prevails in both situations. 179.113.61.206 ( talk ) 15:32, 29 January 2020 (UTC) "Tricks" were learning by heart the basic division of pounds: 6/8 is £⅓, 13/4 is £⅔ for example - "there will be a tables test every Monday" :-( BTW, 2s ÷ 12 is 2d, not 2p.

    Virasena's concept of ardhacheda has been defined as the number of times a given number can be divided evenly by two. This definition gives rise to a function that coincides with the binary logarithm on the powers of two, [ 218 ] but it is different for other integers, giving the 2-adic order rather than the logarithm.

  5. ENIAC - Wikipedia

    In one of these cycles, ENIAC could write a number to a register, read a number from a register, or add/subtract two numbers. A multiplication of a 10-digit number by a d -digit number (for d up to 10) took d +4 cycles, so the multiplication of a 10-digit number by 10-digit number took 14 cycles, or 2,800 microseconds—a rate of 357 per second.

    A number-line visualization of the algebraic addition 2 + 4 = 6. A "jump" that has a distance of 2 followed by another that is long as 4, is the same as a translation by 6. A number-line visualization of the unary addition 2 + 4 = 6. A translation by 4 is equivalent to four translations by 1.
