Skew binary number system Skew binary number system The skew binary number system is a non-standard positional numeral system in which the "n"th digit contributes a value of formula_1 times the digit (digits are indexed from 0) instead of formula_2 times as they do in binary. Each digit has a value of 0, 1, or 2. Notice that a number can have many skew binary representations. For example, a decimal number 15 can be written as 1000, 201 and 122. Each number can be written uniquely in skew binary canonical form where there is only at most one instance of the digit 2, which
Binary number only two possible outcomes of each partial multiplication: For example, the binary numbers 1011 and 1010 are multiplied as follows: Binary numbers can also be multiplied with bits after a binary point: See also Booth's multiplication algorithm. The binary multiplication table is the same as the truth table of the logical conjunction operation formula_6. Long division in binary is again similar to its decimal counterpart. In the example below, the divisor is 101, or 5 decimal, while the dividend is 11011, or 27 decimal. The procedure is the same as that of decimal long division; here, the divisor 101 goes
