  2. Mnemonic major system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonic_major_system

    The major system (also called the phonetic number system, phonetic mnemonic system, or Herigone's mnemonic system) is a mnemonic technique used to help in memorizing numbers. The system works by converting numbers into consonants, then into words by adding vowels. The system works on the principle that images can be remembered more easily than ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexspeak

    Hexspeak. Hexspeak is a novelty form of variant English spelling using the hexadecimal digits. Created by programmers as memorable magic numbers, hexspeak words can serve as a clear and unique identifier with which to mark memory or data. Hexadecimal notation represents numbers using the 16 digits 0123456789ABCDEF.

  4. Base32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base32

    Base32 is an encoding method based on the base-32 numeral system.It uses an alphabet of 32 digits, each of which represents a different combination of 5 bits (2 5).Since base32 is not very widely adopted, the question of notation—which characters to use to represent the 32 digits—is not as settled as in the case of more well-known numeral systems (such as hexadecimal), though RFCs and ...

    The number "7" indicating the series. One digit describing the distance of the minimum pressure area on the upper surface in tenths of the chord. One digit describing the distance of the minimum pressure area on the lower surface in tenths of the chord. One letter referring to a standard profile from the earlier NACA series.

  6. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    A binary code represents text, computer processor instructions, or any other data using a two-symbol system. The two-symbol system used is often "0" and "1" from the binary number system. The binary code assigns a pattern of binary digits, also known as bits, to each character, instruction, etc. For example, a binary string of eight bits (which ...

  7. Six-bit character code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-bit_character_code

    A six-bit character code is a character encoding designed for use on computers with word lengths a multiple of 6. Six bits can only encode 64 distinct characters, so these codes generally include only the upper-case letters, the numerals, some punctuation characters, and sometimes control characters. The 7-track magnetic tape format was ...

  8. Combination lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combination_lock

    A Wordlock letter combination lock.. A combination lock is a type of locking device in which a sequence of symbols, usually numbers, is used to open the lock. The sequence may be entered using a single rotating dial which interacts with several discs or cams, by using a set of several rotating discs with inscribed symbols which directly interact with the locking mechanism, or through an ...

  9. Permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation

    A k-combination of a set S is a k-element subset of S: the elements of a combination are not ordered. Ordering the k-combinations of S in all possible ways produces the k-permutations of S. The number of k-combinations of an n-set, C(n,k), is therefore related to the number of k-permutations of n by: (,) = (,) (,) = _! =!
