  2. List of unusual units of measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_units_of...

    Rack units are typically denoted without a space between the number of units and the 'U'. Thus, a 4U server enclosure (case) is seven inches (177.8 mm) high, or more practically, built to occupy a vertical space seven inches high, with sufficient clearance to allow movement of adjacent hardware.

  3. Drill bit sizes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_sizes

    Drill bit sizes are written as irreducible fractions. So, instead of 78/64 inch, or 1 14/64 inch, the size is noted as 1 7/32 inch. Below is a chart providing the decimal-fraction equivalents that are most relevant to fractional-inch drill bit sizes (that is, 0 to 1 by 64ths).

  5. Q (number format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_(number_format)

    The Q notation is a way to specify the parameters of a binary fixed point number format. For example, in Q notation, the number format denoted by Q8.8 means that the fixed point numbers in this format have 8 bits for the integer part and 8 bits for the fraction part. A number of other notations have been used for the same purpose.

    For instance, using a 32-bit format, 16 bits may be used for the integer and 16 for the fraction. The eight's bit is followed by the four's bit, then the two's bit, then the one's bit. The fractional bits continue the pattern set by the integer bits. The next bit is the half's bit, then the quarter's bit, then the ⅛'s bit, and so on. For example:

  7. IEEE 754 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754

    To conform to the current standard, an implementation must implement at least one of the basic formats as both an arithmetic format and an interchange format. The international standard ISO/IEC/IEEE 60559:2011 (with content identical to IEEE 754-2008) has been approved for adoption through ISO / IEC JTC 1 /SC 25 under the ISO/IEEE PSDO ...

  8. IEEE 754-1985 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754-1985

    Floating-point numbers in IEEE 754 format consist of three fields: a sign bit, a biased exponent, and a fraction. The following example illustrates the meaning of each. The decimal number 0.15625 10 represented in binary is 0.00101 2 (that is, 1/8 + 1/32). (Subscripts indicate the number base.)

  9. Duodecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duodecimal

    The duodecimal system, also known as base twelve or dozenal, is a positional numeral system using twelve as its base.In duodecimal, the number twelve is denoted "10", meaning 1 twelve and 0 units; in the decimal system, this number is instead written as "12" meaning 1 ten and 2 units, and the string "10" means ten.
