BRIEF HISTORY OF NUMBER SYSTEM Flashcards
is the bijective base-1 numeral system. It is the easiest numeral system to express normal numbers.
Unary System
any of the symbols or imagesutilized in an arrangement of numerical representation dependent on the old Roman system.
Roman Numeral
is a numeral system that has the number ten as its base.
Decimal System
Rounding means making a number easier but
keeping its value near what it was.
Rounding off-number
is an interpretation of scientific representation in which the exponent in expression of the form is
selected to always be divisible by 3.
Engineering Notation
is a method for communicating numbers that are too large or too small to be usefully written in decimal form.
Scientific Notation
Electronic computers were the limited possessions of scientists, engineers, and the military until 1951.
First Generation Computers
computers were created with transistors instead of vacuum tubes, these computers were faster, smaller, and more reliable than first-generation computers.
Second Generation Computers
They used Integrated Circuits (ICs). These ICs are popularly known as Chips (called semiconductors).
Third Generation Computers
is the perception that over the historical background of processing equipment, the quantity of transistors on integrated circuits doubles approximately every two years.
Moore’s Law
In the early 1970s, Dr. Ted Hoff, an Intel Corporation engineer, was given the task of designing an integrated circuit to power a digital watch.
