  2. Magic number (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_number_(programming)

    Unnamed numerical constants. [] The term magic number or magic constant refers to the anti-pattern of using numbers directly in source code. This has been referred to as breaking one of the oldest rules of programming, dating back to the COBOL, FORTRAN and PL/1 manuals of the 1960s. [ 1 ] The use of unnamed magic numbers in code obscures the ...

  4. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    A binary number is a number expressed in the base -2 numeral system or binary numeral system, a method for representing numbers that uses only two symbols for the natural numbers: typically "0" ( zero) and "1" ( one ). A binary number may also refer to a rational number that has a finite representation in the binary numeral system, that is, the ...

  5. List of file signatures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_signatures

    This is a list of file signatures, data used to identify or verify the content of a file. Such signatures are also known as magic numbersor Magic Bytes. Many file formats are not intended to be read as text. If such a file is accidentally viewed as a text file, its contents will be unintelligible. However, some file signatures can be ...

  6. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    A binary coderepresents text, computer processor instructions, or any other datausing a two-symbol system. The two-symbol system used is often "0" and "1" from the binary number system. The binary code assigns a pattern of binary digits, also known as bits, to each character, instruction, etc. For example, a binary stringof eight bits (which is ...

  7. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

    10001 is the binary, not decimal, representation of the desired result, but the most significant 1 (the "carry") cannot fit in a 4-bit binary number. In BCD as in decimal, there cannot exist a value greater than 9 (1001) per digit. To correct this, 6 (0110) is added to the total, and then the result is treated as two nibbles:

  8. Bit numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_numbering

    When the bit numbering starts at zero for the least significant bit (LSb) the numbering scheme is called LSb 0. [1] This bit numbering method has the advantage that for any unsigned number the value of the number can be calculated by using exponentiation with the bit number and a base of 2. [2] The value of an unsigned binary integer is therefore.
