2. Positional notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation

   The most significant digit (10) is "dropped": 10 1 0 11 <- Digits of 0xA10B ----- 10 Then we multiply the bottom number from the source base (16), the product is placed under the next digit of the source value, and then add: 10 1 0 11 160 ----- 10 161 Repeat until the final addition is performed: 10 1 0 11 160 2576 41216 ----- 10 161 2576 41227 ...

3. Babylonian cuneiform numerals - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylonian_cuneiform_numerals

   The Babylonian system is credited as being the first known positional numeral system, in which the value of a particular digit depends both on the digit itself and its position within the number. This was an extremely important development because non-place-value systems require unique symbols to represent each power of a base (ten, one hundred ...

4. Numerical digit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_digit

   Each successive place to the left of this has a place value equal to the place value of the previous digit times the base. Similarly, each successive place to the right of the separator has a place value equal to the place value of the previous digit divided by the base. For example, in the numeral 10.34 (written in base 10), the 0 is ...

5. 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:

6. Hindu–Arabic numeral system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindu–Arabic_numeral_system

   The Hindu–Arabic system is designed for positional notation in a decimal system. In a more developed form, positional notation also uses a decimal marker (at first a mark over the ones digit but now more commonly a decimal point or a decimal comma which separates the ones place from the tenths place), and also a symbol for "these digits recur ad infinitum".

7. Quinary - Wikipedia

   Quinary (base 5 or pental [1] [2] [3]) is a numeral system with five as the base.A possible origination of a quinary system is that there are five digits on either hand.. In the quinary place system, five numerals, from 0 to 4, are used to represent any real number.
