Binary number converted to binary, whereupon the first converted piece is multiplied by 10 and added to the second converted piece, where "k" is the number of decimal digits in the second, least-significant piece before conversion. Binary may be converted to and from hexadecimal more easily. This is because the radix of the hexadecimal system (16) is a power of the radix of the binary system (2). More specifically, 16 = 2, so it takes four digits of binary to represent one digit of hexadecimal, as shown in the adjacent table. To convert a hexadecimal number into its binary equivalent, simply substitute
Skew binary number system into a skew binary number runs in time linear in the length of the number. Skew binary numbers find applications in skew binomial heaps, a variant of binomial heaps that support worst-case O(1) insertion, and in skew binary random access lists, a purely functional data structure. They also find use in bootstrapped skew binomial heaps, which have excellent asymptotic guarantees. If smoothsort is implemented using perfect binary trees (rather than the more common Leonardo trees), the heap is divided into trees which correspond to the digits of the skew binary representation of the heap size.
