    A numerical system of notation which uses 10 as its base. The 10 Decimal base digits are 0-9
  • Binary numbers
    Binary describes a numbering scheme in which there are only two possible values for each digit: 0 and 1. The term in computing refers to any digital encoding system in which there are exactly two possible states. E.g. in memory, storage, processing and communications, the 0 and 1 values are sometimes called "low" and "high", respectively
  • Binary arithmetic

  • Overflow
    The generation of a number that is too large to be represented in the device meant to store it
