There are many different numeral systems, that is, writing systems for expressing numbers.
By culture / time period
[edit]"A base is a natural number B whose powers (B multiplied by itself some number of times) are specially designated within a numerical system."[1]:โ38โ The term is not equivalent to radix, as it applies to all numerical notation systems (not just positional ones with a radix) and most systems of spoken numbers.[1] Some systems have two bases, a smaller (subbase) and a larger (base); an example is Roman numerals, which are organized by fives (V=5, L=50, D=500, the subbase) and tens (X=10, C=100, M=1,000, the base).

By type of notation
[edit]Numeral systems are classified here as to whether they use positional notation (also known as place-value notation), and further categorized by radix or base.
Standard positional numeral systems

The common names are derived somewhat arbitrarily from a mix of Latin and Greek, in some cases including roots from both languages within a single name.[27] There have been some proposals for standardisation.[28]
| Base | Name | Usage |

| 4 | Quaternary | Chumashan languages and Kharosthi numerals |
| 5 | Quinary | Aneityum (traditional),[30] Ateso, Gumatj, Kuurn Kopan Noot, and Nunggubuyu, Saraveca languages; common count grouping e.g. tally marks |
| 6 | Senary, seximal | Diceware, Ndom, Kanum, and Proto-Uralic language (suspected) |
| 7 | Septimal, septenary | |
| 8 | Octal | Charles XII of Sweden, Unix-like permissions, Squawk codes, DEC PDP-11, Yuki, Pame, compact notation for binary numbers, Xiantian (I Ching, China) |
| 9 | Nonary, nonal | Compact notation for ternary |
| 10 | Decimal, denary | Most widely used by contemporary societies[31][32][33] |
| 11 | Undecimal, unodecimal, undenary | A base-11 number system was mistakenly attributed to the Mฤori (New Zealand) in the 19th century[34] and one was reported to be used by the Pangwa (Tanzania) in the 20th century,[35] but was not confirmed by later research and is believed to also be an error.[36] Briefly proposed during the French Revolution to settle a dispute between those proposing a shift to duodecimal and those who were content with decimal. Used as a check digit in ISBN for 10-digit ISBNs. Applications in computer science and technology.[37][38][39] |
| 12 | Duodecimal, dozenal | Languages in the Nigerian Middle Belt Janji, Gbiri-Niragu, Piti, and the Nimbia dialect of Gwandara; Chepang language of Nepal, and the Mahl dialect of Maldivian; dozen-gross-great gross counting; 12-hour clock and months timekeeping; years of Chinese zodiac; foot and inch; Roman fractions. |

| 21 | The smallest base in which all fractions โ 1/2โ to โ 1/18โ have periods of 4 or shorter. | |
| 23 | Kalam language,[48] | |
| 24 | Quadravigesimal[49] | 24-hour clock timekeeping; Greek alphabet; Kaugel language. |
| 25 | Sometimes used as compact notation for quinary. | |
| 26 | Hexavigesimal[49][50] | Sometimes used for encryption or ciphering,[51] using all letters in the English alphabet. Used to encode SHA-256 hashes into uppercase letters in InChIKey (a standard indexing system of chemical structures)[52] and SID (sequence identification, an indexing system of PCR amplicons in forensics).[50] |
| 27 | Telefol,[48] Oksapmin,[53] Wambon,[54] and Hewa[55] languages. Mapping the nonzero digits to the alphabet and zero to the space is occasionally used to provide checksums for alphabetic data such as personal names,[56] to provide a concise encoding of alphabetic strings,[57] or as the basis for a form of gematria.[58] Compact notation for ternary. | |
| 28 | Months timekeeping. | |
| 30 | The Natural Area Code, this is the smallest base such that all of โ 1/2โ to โ 1/6โ terminate, a number n is a regular number if and only if โ 1/nโ terminates in base 30. | |
| 32 | Duotrigesimal | Found in the Ngiti language. Also used to encode computer (binary) data into an alphanumerical string without confusable characters (e.g. zero and "O", eight and "B") in RFC 4648, with each character standing for 5 bits. |
| 34 | The smallest base where โ 1/2โ terminates and all of โ 1/2โ to โ 1/18โ have periods of 4 or shorter. | |
| 36 | Hexatrigesimal[59][60] | Used to encode large numbers into an alphanumeric string (26 letters, 10 numbers). |
| 40 | DEC RADIX 50/MOD40 encoding used to compactly represent file names and other symbols on Digital Equipment Corporation computers. The character set is a subset of ASCII consisting of space, upper case letters, the punctuation marks "$", ".", and "%", and the numerals. | |

| 47 | Smallest base for which no generalized Wieferich primes are known. | |
| 49 | Compact notation for septenary.[citation needed] | |

| 60 | Sexagesimal | Babylonian numerals and Sumerian; degrees-minutes-seconds and hours-minutes-seconds measurement systems; Ekari; covers base 62 apart from I, O, and l, but including _(underscore).[61] |
| 64 | Used to encode computer (binary) data into a relatively compact string, with each character standing for 6 bits (RFC 4648). | |
| 72 | The smallest base greater than binary such that no three-digit narcissistic number exists. | |
| 80 | Used as a sub-base in Supyire. | |
| 89 | Largest base for which all left-truncatable primes are known. | |
| 90 | Related to Goormaghtigh conjecture for the generalized repunit numbers (111 in base 90 = 1111111111111 in base 2). | |
| 97 | Smallest base which is not perfect odd power (where generalized Wagstaff numbers can be factored algebraically) for which no generalized Wagstaff primes are known. | |
| 185 | Smallest base which is not a perfect power (where generalized repunits can be factored algebraically) for which no generalized repunit primes are known. | |
| 210 | Smallest base such that all fractions โ 1/2โ to โ 1/10โ terminate. |
| Base | Name | Usage |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Unary(Bijectivebaseโ1) | Tally marks, Counting. Unary numbering is used as part of some data compression algorithms such as Golomb coding. It also forms the basis for the Peano axioms for formalizing arithmetic within mathematical logic. A form of unary notation called Church encoding is used to represent numbers within lambda calculus.
Some email spam filters tag messages with a number of asterisks in an e-mail header such as X-Spam-Bar or X-SPAM-LEVEL. The larger the number, the more likely the email is considered spam. |
| 10 | Bijective base-10 | To avoid zero |
| 26 | Bijective base-26 | Spreadsheet column numeration. Also used by John Nash as part of his obsession with numerology and the uncovering of "hidden" messages.[62] |

All known numeral systems developed before the Babylonian numerals are non-positional,[64] as are many developed later, such as the Roman numerals. The French Cistercian monks created their own numeral system.

Quinary-vigesimal. This is most frequent. The Greenland Eskimo says 'other hand two' for 7, 'first foot two' for 12, 'other foot two' for 17, and similar combinations to 20, 'man ended.' The Unalit is also quinary to twenty, which is 'man completed.' ...

This article proposes the Unique Number Mapping as an identification scheme, that could replace the E.164 numbers, could be used both with PSTN and VoIP terminals and makes use of the elements of the ENUM technology and the hexatrigesimal number system. [โฆ] To have the shortest IDs, we should use the greatest possible number system, which is the hexatrigesimal. Here the place values correspond to powers of 36...
