Radix

In mathematical numeral systems, the radix or base is the number of unique digits, including zero, used to represent numbers in a positional numeral system. For example, for the decimal system (the most common system in use today) the radix is ten, because it uses the ten digits from 0 through 9. In any positional numeral system (except unary, where the radix is 1), the number x and its base y are conventionally written as (x)_y, although for base ten the subscript is usually assumed and not written, as it is the most common way to express value. For example, (100)_{10} (in the decimal system) represents the number one hundred, whilst (100)_2 (in the binary system with base 2) represents the number four.[1] we will update it soon...
