 NUMBER SYSTEM
• Computers understand machine language. Every letter, symbol etc.
that we write in the instructions given to computer, it gets converted
into machine language. This machine language comprises of numbers.
In order to understand the language used by computers and other
digital system it is crucial to have a better understanding of number
system.
• Number systems can be classified into its sub-types on the basis of
base of that system. Base of a number systems plays crucial role in
understanding the number system and to convert it from one sub-
type to other sub-type. Base is also sometimes referred as radix; both
these terms have same meaning. PAGE 07

Decimal
• The decimal is called a base or radix 10
• It uses 10 digits which include 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and
• coefficients are multiplied by the power to 10.

10
Example: 270

Binary
• The binary system only has two digits, 1 and 0
• Numbers in binary system are represented to the base or radix 2

Octal
• The octal is used in systems utilizing 3-bit codes.
• It uses 8 digits ( 0,1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7)
• known as base-8 or number system with radix 8.

Example:

Hexadecimal
• It is believed that the biggest drawback of using the binary numbering
system for computer operations is that programmers may have to
deal with long and confusing strings of 1s and 0s.
• To reduce such confusion, the hexadecimal, radix 16 or base-16
numbering system is used as shorthand to display the binary contents
of primary and secondary storage.
