NUMBER SYSTEM

NUMBER SYSTEM
Number system is a way to represent a no in very systematic order and we also know that a number represent quantity (some time quality) of the product.
        In Computer Science number system has significance value there are four different types of number system.
The four different types of number system is as follows:
i)                Binary Number System
ii)             Octal Number System
iii)         Decimal Number System
iv)          Hexa- Decimal Number System
Each Number System has two different attribute first is known as ‘radix’ or ‘base’ and another is ‘range’.
Radix defined worth are repeatable properties of particular number and Range specifies a number of digits.

Example
Binary
2
0,1
(110)2
Octal
8
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
(5746)8
Decimal
10
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
56789
Hexa-Decimal
16
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,
A,B,C,D,E,F
(3AF)16

Decimal Number System
This is the natural number system as a human being, we are working on decimal number system and we are very comfortable   in performing different operation in this number system. The base of this number system is 10.
Ex- 780,1058,589658 etc.
Binary Number System
It is also known as machine number system.It has only two digits '0' and '1' and its base is 2. In Computer science every data is represented in binary format.
Ex- (11110011)2
Octal Number System
It is also machine number sustem, generally used by  computer system for memory refrence or some specific data values. It has base 8 and digits are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7.
Ex- (176)8
Hexa-Decimal Number System
It has base 16 and digits are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and A,B,C,D,E,F . Here A =10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14 and F=15.
It is used in network adressess.
Ex- (98EF)16
