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
Compound File Binary Format Binary Format is a container, with little restriction on what can be stored within it. A CFBF file structure loosely resembles a FAT filesystem. The file is partitioned into "Sectors" which are chained together with a "File Allocation Table" (not to be mistaken with the file system of the same name) which contains chains of sectors related to each file, a "Directory" holds information for contained files with a Sector ID (SID) for the starting sector of a chain and so on. The CFBF file consists of a 512-Byte header record followed by a number of sectors whose size is
