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
Binary logarithm Binary logarithm In mathematics, the binary logarithm () is the power to which the number must be raised to obtain the value . That is, for any real number , For example, the binary logarithm of is , the binary logarithm of is , the binary logarithm of is , and the binary logarithm of is . The binary logarithm is the logarithm to the base . The binary logarithm function is the inverse function of the power of two function. As well as , alternative notations for the binary logarithm include , , (the notation preferred by ISO 31-11
