Binary number and overflow is repeated for each digit of significance. Counting progresses as follows: Binary counting follows the same procedure, except that only the two symbols "0" and "1" are available. Thus, after a digit reaches 1 in binary, an increment resets it to 0 but also causes an increment of the next digit to the left: In the binary system, each digit represents an increasing power of 2, with the rightmost digit representing 2, the next representing 2, then 2, and so on. The equivalent decimal representation of a binary number is sum of the powers of 2 which each
Bibi-binary and the sum of −7 and 7 would give "0 0000"; this "two's complement" system thus needs only a single representation for the number zero. Bibi-binary The Bibi-binary system for numeric notation (in French système Bibi-binaire, or abbreviated "système Bibi") is a hexadecimal numeral system first described in 1968 by singer/mathematician Robert "Boby" Lapointe (1922–1972). At the time, it attracted the attention of André Lichnerowicz, then engaged in studies at the University of Lyon. It found some use in a variety of unforeseen applications: stochastic poetry, stochastic art, colour classification, aleatory music, architectural symbolism, etc. The notational system directly and
