Binary number representation, relying on the fact that 0.111111... is the sum of the geometric series 2 + 2 + 2 + ... which is 1. Binary numerals which neither terminate nor recur represent irrational numbers. For instance, Binary number In mathematics and digital electronics, a binary number is a number expressed in the base-2 numeral system or binary numeral system, which uses only two symbols: typically 0 (zero) and 1 (one). The base-2 numeral system is a positional notation with a radix of 2. Each digit is referred to as a bit. Because of its straightforward implementation in digital electronic circuitry
Binary logarithm Binary logarithm In mathematics, the binary logarithm () is the power to which the number must be raised to obtain the value . That is, for any real number , For example, the binary logarithm of is , the binary logarithm of is , the binary logarithm of is , and the binary logarithm of is . The binary logarithm is the logarithm to the base . The binary logarithm function is the inverse function of the power of two function. As well as , alternative notations for the binary logarithm include , , (the notation preferred by ISO 31-11
