Binary system or more objects such as for trinary stars and trinary asteroids. In a binary system the brighter object is referred to as primary, and the other the secondary. They are also classified based on orbit. Wide binaries are objects with orbits that keep them apart from one another. They evolve separately and have very little effect on each other. Close binaries are close to each other and are able to transfer mass from one another. They can also be classified based on how we observe them. Visual binaries are two stars separated enough that they can be viewed through a
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
