List of numeral systems

Summary

none

There are many different numeral systems, that is, writing systems for expressing numbers.

By culture / time period

"A base is a natural number B whose powers (B multiplied by itself some number of times) are specially designated within a numerical system." The term is not equivalent to radix, as it applies to all numerical notation systems (not just positional ones with a radix) and most systems of spoken numbers. Some systems have two bases, a smaller (subbase) and a larger (base); an example is Roman numerals, which are organized by fives (V=5, L=50, D=500, the subbase) and tens (X=10, C=100, M=1,000, the base).

By type of notation

Positional numeral systems Numeral systems are classified here as to whether they use positional notation (also known as place-value notation), and further categorized by radix or base.

Standard positional numeral systems

LEDs]] to express binary values. In this clock, each column of LEDs shows a [[binary-coded decimal]] numeral of the traditional [[sexagesimal]] time.

The common names are derived somewhat arbitrarily from a mix of Latin and Greek, in some cases including roots from both languages within a single name. There have been some proposals for standardisation.

BaseNameUsage
2BinaryDigital computing, imperial and customary volume (bushel-kenning-peck-gallon-pottle-quart-pint-cup-gill-jack-fluid ounce-tablespoon)
3Ternary, trinaryCantor set (all points in [0,1] that can be represented in ternary with no 1s); counting Tasbih in Islam; hand-foot-yard and teaspoon-tablespoon-shot measurement systems; most economical integer base
4QuaternaryChumashan languages and Kharosthi numerals
5QuinaryGumatj, Ateso, Nunggubuyu, Kuurn Kopan Noot, and Saraveca languages; common count grouping e.g. tally marks
6Senary, seximalDiceware, Ndom, Kanum, and Proto-Uralic language (suspected)
7Septimal, Septenary
8OctalCharles XII of Sweden, Unix-like permissions, Squawk codes, DEC PDP-11, Yuki, Pame, compact notation for binary numbers, Xiantian (I Ching, China)
9Nonary, nonalCompact notation for ternary
10Decimal, denaryMost widely used by contemporary societies
11Undecimal, unodecimal, undenaryA base-11 number system was mistakenly attributed to the Māori (New Zealand) in the 19th century and one was reported to be used by the Pangwa (Tanzania) in the 20th century, but was not confirmed by later research and is believed to also be an error. Briefly proposed during the French Revolution to settle a dispute between those proposing a shift to duodecimal and those who were content with decimal. Used as a check digit in ISBN for 10-digit ISBNs. Applications in computer science and technology.
12Duodecimal, dozenalLanguages in the Nigerian Middle Belt Janji, Gbiri-Niragu, Piti, and the Nimbia dialect of Gwandara; Chepang language of Nepal, and the Mahl dialect of Maldivian; dozen-gross-great gross counting; 12-hour clock and months timekeeping; years of Chinese zodiac; foot and inch; Roman fractions.
13Tredecimal, tridecimalConway's base 13 function.
14Quattuordecimal, quadrodecimalProgramming for the HP 9100A/B calculator and image processing applications.
15Quindecimal, pentadecimalTelephony routing over IP, and the Huli language.
16Hexadecimal, sexadecimal, sedecimalCompact notation for binary data; tonal system of Nystrom.
17Heptadecimal, septendecimal
18Octodecimal

26HexavigesimalSometimes used for encryption or ciphering, using all letters in the English alphabet
27Telefol, Oksapmin, Wambon, and Hewa languages. Mapping the nonzero digits to the alphabet and zero to the space is occasionally used to provide checksums for alphabetic data such as personal names, to provide a concise encoding of alphabetic strings, or as the basis for a form of gematria. Compact notation for ternary.
28Months timekeeping.
30The Natural Area Code, this is the smallest base such that all of to terminate, a number n is a regular number if and only if terminates in base 30.
32DuotrigesimalFound in the Ngiti language.
34The smallest base where terminates and all of to have periods of 4 or shorter.
36Hexatrigesimal
40DEC RADIX 50/MOD40 encoding used to compactly represent file names and other symbols on Digital Equipment Corporation computers. The character set is a subset of ASCII consisting of space, upper case letters, the punctuation marks "$", ".", and "%", and the numerals.
42Largest base for which all minimal primes are known.
47Smallest base for which no generalized Wieferich primes are known.
49Compact notation for septenary.
50SQUOZE encoding used to compactly represent file names and other symbols on some IBM computers. Encoding using all Gurmukhi characters plus the Gurmukhi digits.
60SexagesimalBabylonian numerals and Sumerian; degrees-minutes-seconds and hours-minutes-seconds measurement systems; Ekari; covers base 62 apart from I, O, and l, but including _(underscore).
64
72The smallest base greater than binary such that no three-digit narcissistic number exists.
80Used as a sub-base in Supyire.
89Largest base for which all left-truncatable primes are known.
90Related to Goormaghtigh conjecture for the generalized repunit numbers (111 in base 90 = 1111111111111 in base 2).
97Smallest base which is not perfect odd power (where generalized Wagstaff numbers can be factored algebraically) for which no generalized Wagstaff primes are known.
185Smallest base which is not a perfect power (where generalized repunits can be factored algebraically) for which no generalized repunit primes are known.
210Smallest base such that all fractions to terminate.

[[Bijective numeration]]

BaseNameUsage
1Unary(Bijectivebase1)Tally marks, Counting. Unary numbering is used as part of some data compression algorithms such as Golomb coding. It also forms the basis for the Peano axioms for formalizing arithmetic within mathematical logic. A form of unary notation called Church encoding is used to represent numbers within lambda calculus.
10Bijective base-10To avoid zero
26Bijective base-26Spreadsheet column numeration. Also used by John Nash as part of his obsession with numerology and the uncovering of "hidden" messages.
