Numeral system
(or system of numeration) is a writing system for

expressing numbers; that is, a mathematical notation for representing numbers of a given set, using digits or other symbols in a consistent manner

The number the numeral represents is called its value.
Ideally,

a numeral system will:
Represent a useful set of numbers (e.g. all integers, or rational numbers)
Give every number represented a unique representation (or at least a standard representation)
Reflect the algebraic and arithmetic structure of the numbers

The most commonly used system of numerals is the Hindu–Arabic numeral

system. 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.

Decimal numbers (base 10) Represented using 10 numerals: 0, 1, 2,

Decimal numbers (base 10)
Represented using 10 numerals: 0, 1, 2, 3,

4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Each position represents a power of 10:
401= 4*102+ 0*101 + 1*100 = 400+ 1
130= 1*102 + 3*101+0*100 = 100 + 30
9786= 9*103 + 7*102 + 8*101 + 6*100=
= 9*1000 +7*100 + 8*10 + 6*1

Binary numbers are represented by sequence of bits (smallest unit of

information – 0 or 1)
Bits are easy to represent in electronics

Binary numbers (base 2)
Represented by 2numerals: 0and 1
Each position represents a

power of 2:
101b= 1*22 + 0*21 + 1*20 = 100b + 1b = 4+1= 5
110b = 1*22 + 1*21 + 0*20 = 100b + 10b = 4+2=6
110101b= 1*25 + 1*24 + 0*23 + 1*22 + 0*21+ 1*20=
= 32 + 16 + 4 + 1= = 53

A text encoding is a system that uses binary numbers (1and

0) torepresent characters
Letters, numerals, etc.
In the ASCII encoding each character consists of 8 bits (one byte) of data
ASCII is used in nearly all personal computers
In the Unicode(UTF-16) encoding each character consists of 16 bits (two bytes)
Can represent many alphabets
