Editor's Note: This is the first article in a two-part series on decimal representations and decimal arithmetic in general, and on Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) in particular. In this first installment, ...

Il présente l'avantage de simplifier la conversion avec la notation décimale. Avec n bits (n multiple de 4), il est possible de représenter les nombres entre 0 et 10 n/4-1. Soit approximativement ...

HERE’S A C/C++ PROGRAM that converts decimal numbers ranging from 0 to 99,999 to binary and binary coded decimal (BCD) formats. Using a simple algorithm in conjunction with pointer arithmetic and ...

Binary codes are codes which are characterized in binary system with alteration from the original ones. The two types of binary codes are the Weighted Binary Systems and Non Weighted Codes. Weighted ...

While desktop computers have tons of computing power and storage, some small CPUs don’t have a lot of space to store things. What’s more is some CPUs don’t do multiplication and division very well.

A rudimentary understanding of digital logic and simple integrated circuits is critical if you’re ever going to pull off some really gnarly hacks. [Daniel] put together an explanation about the use of ...

Here's a C/C++ program that converts decimal numbers ranging from 0 to 99,999 to binary and BCD formats. Using a simple algorithm in conjunction with pointer ...

In the computer, all data are represented as binary digits (bits), and eight binary digits make up one byte. For example, the upper case letter A is 0101001. Numbers however can take several forms.

L'Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code (EBCDIC) est un mode de codage des caractères sur 8 bits créé par IBM à l'époque des cartes perforées. Il existe au moins 6 versions différentes bien ...
