By type of notation

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

A binary clock might use LEDs to express binary values. In this clock, each column of LEDs shows a binary-coded decimal numeral of the traditional sexagesimal time.

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.[4] There have been some proposals for standardisation.[5]

Base Name Usage
2 Binary Digital computing, imperial and customary volume (bushel-kenning-peck-gallon-pottle-quart-pint-cup-gill-jack-fluid ounce-tablespoon)
3 Ternary Cantor set (all points in [0,1] that can be represented in ternary with no 1s); counting Tasbih in Islam; hand-foot-yard and teaspoon-tablespoon-shot measurement systems; most economical integer base
4 Quaternary Chumashan languages and Kharosthi numerals
5 Quinary Gumatj, Ateso, Nunggubuyu, Kuurn Kopan Noot, and Saraveca languages; common count grouping e.g. tally marks
6 Senary, seximal Diceware, Ndom, Kanum, and Proto-Uralic language (suspected)
7 Septimal, septenary[6] Weeks timekeeping, Western music letter notation
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

11 Undecimal, unodecimal, undenary A base-11 number system was attributed to the Māori (New Zealand) in the 19th century[10] and the Pangwa (Tanzania) in the 20th century.[11] 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.[12][13][14] Featured in popular fiction.
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; penny and shilling
13 Tredecimal, tridecimal[15][16] Conway base 13 function.

15 Quindecimal, pentadecimal[19][16] Telephony routing over IP, and the Huli language.
16 Hexadecimal, sexadecimal, sedecimal Compact notation for binary data; tonal system; ounce and pound.
17 Septendecimal, heptadecimal[19][16]

20 Vigesimal Basque, Celtic, Muisca, Inuit, Yoruba, Tlingit, and Dzongkha numerals; Santali, and Ainu languages; shilling and pound
5&20 Quinary-vigesimal[20][21][22] Greenlandic, Iñupiaq, Kaktovik, Maya, Nunivak Cupʼig, and Yupʼik numerals – "wide-spread... in the whole territory from Alaska along the Pacific Coast to the Orinoco and the Amazon"[20]
21 The smallest base in which all fractions 1/2 to 1/18 have periods of 4 or shorter.
24 Quadravigesimal[23] 24-hour clock timekeeping; Greek alphabet; Kaugel language.
25 Sometimes used as compact notation for quinary.
26 Hexavigesimal[23][24] Sometimes used for encryption or ciphering,[25] using all letters in the English alphabet
28 Months timekeeping.
30 Trigesimal The Natural Area Code, this is the smallest base such that all of 1/2 to 1/6 terminate, a number n is a regular number if and only if 1/n terminates in base 30.

42 Largest base for which all minimal primes are known.
47 Smallest base for which no generalized Wieferich primes are known.
49 Compact notation for septenary.

All known numeral systems developed before the Babylonian numerals are non-positional,[37] as are many developed later, such as the Roman numerals. The French Cistercian monks created their own numeral system.

The Unalit is also quinary to twenty, which is 'man completed.' ..."
