Negative binary numbers

With addition being easily accomplished, we can perform the operation of subtraction with the same technique simply by making one of the numbers negative. For example, the subtraction problem of 7 - 5 is essentially the same as the addition problem 7 + (-5). Since we already know how to represent positive numbers in binary, all we need to know now is how to represent their negative counterparts and we'll be able to subtract.

A binary file, usually appended with the extension.bin is a file type that denotes the contents of the file as the most basic of computer-readable information. The actual purpose or human-readable content of binaries can be, essentially, anything.

Understanding the Number system

This is a somewhat technical subject, but it is one that will come in handy when you are working with computers, so stick with me through this article and you will understand number systems. I taught this subject to Army officers when I was on active duty many years ago, and I still remember it well. I was able to get it across to my students, and I can do the same for you if you will concentrate on it with me. I recommend that you work the problems to fully understand the subject.

How To Understand Binary System of Number Counting???

Well, we are all acquainted with decimal system of number counting. It has ten digits from 0 to 9. We are keeping here counting restricted to what we call as natural numbers, such as 1 mango, 2 mangoes, and so on. Now, what about binary system of number counting where you have only two digits, 0 and 1. We will discuss the concept behind zero as a dummy variable in this article, and would see that whether it is decimal or binary or any other system of number counting, the fundamental rule is the same.

Representation of binary numbers

Any number can be represented by any sequence of bits (binary digits), which in turn may be represented by any mechanism capable of being in two mutually exclusive states.

What is binary number?

What is binary number

Binary Number is a system of numbers.It is also known by its other names binary numeral system, or base-2 number system.Binary Number represents numeric values using two symbols, 0 and 1. More specifically, the usual base -2 system is a positional notation with a radix of 2. Because of its straightforward implementation in digital electronic circuitry using logic gates, the binary system is used internally by almost all modern computers.
