What is Computer number format?
A '''computer number format''' is the way that [[computer]]s and [[calculator]]s represent numbers. Most computers use a system of [[binary]] which is composed of ones and zeros. Other systems in use are the [[Octal numeral system|octal]] (0,1-7) or the [[Hexadecimal numeral system|hexadecimal]] (0,1-9,A,B,C,D,E,F) systems. So we can use codes, which the [[computer]] understands only, as well as other number systems. {{tech-stub}} [[Category:computer science]]
