    Thus, only 10 bits of the significand appear in the memory format but the total precision is 11 bits. In IEEE 754 parlance, there are 10 bits of significand, but there are 11 bits of significand precision (log 10 (2 11) ≈ 3.311 decimal digits, or 4 digits ± slightly less than 5 units in the last place).

    Infobox references. 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin ( TCDD) is a polychlorinated dibenzo -p- dioxin (sometimes shortened, though inaccurately, to simply 'dioxin') [ 3] with the chemical formula C 12 H 4 Cl 4 O 2. Pure TCDD is a colorless solid with no distinguishable odor at room temperature.

  5. Duodecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duodecimal

    Numeral systems. The duodecimal system, also known as base twelve or dozenal, is a positional numeral system using twelve as its base. In duodecimal, the number twelve is denoted "10", meaning 1 twelve and 0 units; in the decimal system, this number is instead written as "12" meaning 1 ten and 2 units, and the string "10" means ten.

  9. Densely packed decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Densely_packed_decimal

    Densely packed decimal (DPD) is an efficient method for binary encoding decimal digits.. The traditional system of binary encoding for decimal digits, known as binary-coded decimal (BCD), uses four bits to encode each digit, resulting in significant wastage of binary data bandwidth (since four bits can store 16 states and are being used to store only 10), even when using packed BCD.
