Digital systems work with inputs, which are essentially just off/on signals, with the two signal levels represented by 0 and 1. These are termed binary digits. The number system used for everyday calculations is the denary or decimal system. This is based on the use of 10 digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. With a number represented by this system, the digit position in the number indicates the ...
