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 with formula_8 1s is equal to the binary number formula_9 minus formula_8. Let formula_11 represents the digit formula_12 repeated formula_13 times. The skew binary number of the form formula_14 with formula_8 1s is equal to the binary number formula_16 minus formula_8. Similarly to the preceding section, the binary number formula_18 of the form formula_7 with formula_8 1s equals the skew binary number formula_21 plus formula_8. Note that since addition is not defined, adding formula_8 corresponds to incrementing the number formula_8 times. However, formula_8 is bounded by the logarithm of formula_18 and incrementation takes constant time. Hence transforming a binary number
