Number Base Systems
Number Base | Digits | Prefix |
---|---|---|
Binary | 0-1 | 0b |
Octal | 0-7 | 0o |
Decimal | 0-9 | - |
Hexadecimal | 0-9, A-F | 0x |
What are Number Bases?
Number base systems are methods for representing numbers using different sets of digits. Common systems include binary (base-2), octal (base-8), decimal (base-10), and hexadecimal (base-16).
Common Applications
- Binary: Computer data storage, digital electronics
- Hexadecimal: Memory addresses, color codes, cryptography
- Base conversion: Data transmission, programming, computer science

What is Base Conversion?
Base conversion is the process of converting a number from one number system (base) to another. This tool lets you seamlessly convert between binary (base 2), octal (base 8), decimal (base 10), hexadecimal (base 16), and other number systems.
Technical Principles
Base conversion works by understanding the positional value of each digit in a number. For example, in base 10, the number 123 means (1×10²) + (2×10¹) + (3×10⁰). The same principles apply to other bases, like binary where 101 means (1×2²) + (0×2¹) + (1×2⁰) = 5 in decimal.
Common Applications
- Computer Programming & Development
- Digital Electronics & Hardware Design
- Network & IP Address Management
- Color Representation (Hex Codes)
- Data Encoding & Compression
- Computer Science Education & Learning
Supported Number Systems
- Binary (Base 2) (Used in computing fundamentals)
