The Numbering Systems


The Decimal Number System uses base 10. It includes the digits from 0 through 9. The Binary Number System uses base 2 includes only the digits 0 and 1. The Hexadecimal Number System uses base 16 includes only the digits 0 through 9 and the letters A, B, C, D, E, and F.

Base
Base 2 Base 10 Base 16

Binary Number Formats


The Bit: The smallest "unit" of data on a binary computer is a single bit. The Byte A byte contains eight bits, it can represent 2^8, or 256, different values. The Word A word contains exactly two bytes, or 16 bit, it can represent 2^16, or 65,536 different values. The Double Word A double word contains exactly two words, or 32 bit, it can represent 2^32, or 4,294,967,295, different values
