Systems requiring arithmetic operationson data usually performthose operations in binary form. As aresult, they must convert the data to BCDform for display purposes. Address-selectioninformation from ...

Here's a C/C++ program that converts decimal numbers ranging from 0 to 99,999 to binary and BCD formats. Using a simple algorithm in conjunction with pointer ...

My last column introduced the concepts underlying BCD (binary-coded-decimal) representations. In particular, we considered unsigned versus 10s-complement versions of BCD numbers. In this column we are ...

When anyone is first introduced to the topic of digital computers, they are almost invariably told that these machines are based on binary (base-2) logic and the binary number system, where “binary” ...
