Radix In mathematical numeral systems, the base or radix is usually the number of various unique digits, including zero, that a positional numeral system uses to represent numbers.

Radix economy Radix economy is the efficiency of expressing a number in a particular base. The economy for any particular number in a given base is equal to the number of digits needed to express it in that base, multiplied by the radix.
Radix point In mathematics, radix point refers to the symbol used in numerical representations to separate the integral part of the number (to the left of the radix) from its fractional part (to the right of the radix).

Radix In mathematical numeral systems, the base or radix is usually the number of various unique digits, including zero, that a positional numeral system uses to represent numbers.
