Number system

In mathematics, a “base” or a “radix” is the number of different digits or combination of digits and letters that a system of counting uses to represent numbers. (Wikipedia)

Decimal
is a Base 10 number that Represent any number using 10 digits [0–9]
Binary
Base 2 — Represent any number using 2 digits [0–1]
Octal
Base 8  — Represent any number using 8 digits [0–7]
Hexadecimal
Base 16— Represent any number using 10 digits and 6 characters [0–9, A, B, C, D, E, F]

Who invented the numbers system we use today?

How does the base 10 number system work?

is this mathematical number system applicable to computer language too ?

Two Indian mathematicians are credited with developing it. Aryabhata of Kusumapura developed the place-value notation in the 5th century and a century later Brahmagupta introduced the symbol for zero. I just got it in wikepedia. lols

how about Italian mathematician Fibonacci, also known as Leonardo Pisano Bigollo, who introduced the Arabic numbers to Europe in the 12th century.

The base 10 number system is the numbers that we used in our daily life so basically it works as how we count things from 0 -9.

so it is the ordinary numerical value of 0-9 that we use. thankyou .

Oh. Im sorry. I didnt know him. I'll search him later. hehe

What is the importance of binary numbers?

Binary numbers is used in computers, because our computers only understand 0 and 1 number.

so then why do we have hexadecimal and octal?

because it is hard for us to memorize all those 1 and 0 thing.

Ow. okay thanks for answering my question.

hanggang ngayon ba sa mga supercomputers yung naiintindihan pa din ng computer is 1, 0?

this is very significant especially if you will be a future educator someday.

magagamit natin to in the future lalo pa't future teacher tayo.

I agree with this one eventhough i'm not a future educator.

yeah, magagamit natin to sa trabaho

mas madali sya maintindihan kasi 2 numbers lang ang pinag uusapan saka mas madali gamitin and consisits of two numbers lang naiintindihan ng computer

We will use it in our computer, kasi diba 1 at 0 lang naiintindihan ng computer.
