    For single digit numbers simply duplicate the number into the tens digit, for example: 1 × 11 = 11, 2 × 11 = 22, up to 9 × 11 = 99. The product for any larger non-zero integer can be found by a series of additions to each of its digits from right to left, two at a time. First take the ones digit and copy that to the temporary result.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_spelling

    Calculator spelling is an unintended characteristic of the seven-segment display traditionally used by calculators, in which, when read upside-down, the digits resemble letters of the Latin alphabet. Each digit may be mapped to one or more letters, creating a limited but functional subset of the alphabet, sometimes referred to as beghilos (or ...

    With decimal arithmetic, final digits of 0 and 5 are avoided; if there is a choice between numbers with the least significant digit 0 or 1, 4 or 5, 5 or 6, 9 or 0, then the digit different from 0 or 5 shall be selected; otherwise, the choice is arbitrary.

  9. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    The amount of possible combinations doubles with each binary digit added as illustrated in Table 2. Groupings with a specific number of bits are used to represent varying things and have specific names. A byte is a bit string containing the number of bits needed to represent a character. On most modern computers, this is an eight bit string.
