Positional notation
A positional notation or place-value notation system is a
numeral system in which each position is related to the next by a
constant multiplier,
a common ratio, called the
base or
radix of that numeral system. Each position may be represented by a unique symbol or by a limited set of symbols. The resultant value of each position is the value of its symbol or symbols multiplied by a power of the base. The total value of a positional number is the total of the resultant values of all positions. The
decimal system uses ten unique symbols, whereas the
sexagesimal system usually uses a pseudo-decimal system for each position and separates each position from the next by punctuation. Modern computers use
binary,
octal, and
hexadecimal numbers, the last using decimal numerals (0–9) plus the letters A–F to provide the sixteen possible symbols in each position.
