  2. Binary number - Wikipedia

    In the example below, the divisor is 101 2, or 5 in decimal, while the dividend is 11011 2, or 27 in decimal. The procedure is the same as that of decimal long division; here, the divisor 101 2 goes into the first three digits 110 2 of the dividend one time, so a "1" is written on the top line. This result is multiplied by the divisor, and ...

  3. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

    For example, a packed decimal value encoded with the bytes 12 34 56 7C represents the fixed-point value +1,234.567 when the implied decimal point is located between the fourth and fifth digits: 12 34 56 7C 12 34.56 7+ The decimal point is not actually stored in memory, as the packed BCD storage format does not provide for it.

  4. Bitwise operation - Wikipedia

    0110 (decimal 6) AND 1011 (decimal 11) = 0010 (decimal 2) Because of this property, it becomes easy to check the parity of a binary number by checking the value of the lowest valued bit. Using the example above: 0110 (decimal 6) AND 0001 (decimal 1) = 0000 (decimal 0) Because 6 AND 1 is zero, 6 is divisible by two and therefore even.

  5. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating...

    This gives from 6 to 9 significant decimal digits precision. If a decimal string with at most 6 significant digits is converted to the IEEE 754 single-precision format, giving a normal number, and then converted back to a decimal string with the same number of digits, the final result should match the original string. If an IEEE 754 single ...

    The Archimedean property: any point x before the finish line lies between two of the points P n (inclusive).. It is possible to prove the equation 0.999... = 1 using just the mathematical tools of comparison and addition of (finite) decimal numbers, without any reference to more advanced topics such as series and limits.

  7. Decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal

    Place value of number in decimal system. The decimal numeral system (also called the base-ten positional numeral system and denary / ˈ d iː n ər i / [1] or decanary) is the standard system for denoting integer and non-integer numbers. It is the extension to non-integer numbers (decimal fractions) of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system.

  8. Ternary numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_numeral_system

    One trit is equivalent to log 2 3 (about 1.58496) bits of information. Although ternary most often refers to a system in which the three digits are all non–negative numbers; specifically 0 , 1 , and 2 , the adjective also lends its name to the balanced ternary system; comprising the digits −1 , 0 and +1, used in comparison logic and ternary ...

  9. Duodecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duodecimal

    If the digits in the given number include zeroes (for example, 7,080.9), these are left out in the digit decomposition (7,080.9 = 7,000 + 80 + 0.9). Then, the digit conversion tables can be used to obtain the equivalent value in the target base for each digit. If the given number is in duodecimal and the target base is decimal, we get:
