Figure 13.2 Numbers in Decimal, Binary, Octal and Hexadecimal
The effect of changing the base of a number does not change the actual value, only how it is written. The basic rules of mathematics still apply, but many beginners will feel disoriented. This chapter will cover basic topics that are needed to use more complex programming instructions later in the book. These will include the basic number systems, conversion between different number bases, and some data oriented topics.
13.2 NUMERICAL VALUES
13.2.1 Binary
Binary numbers are the most fundamental numbering system in all computers. A single binary digit (a bit) corresponds to the condition of a single wire. If the voltage on the wire is true the bit value is 1. If the voltage is off the bit value is 0. If two or more wires are used then each new wire adds another significant digit. Each binary number will have an equivalent digital value. Figure 13.3 shows how to convert a binary number to a decimal equivalent. Consider the digits, starting at the right. The least significant digit is 1, and
plc numbers - 13.3
is in the 0th position. To convert this to a decimal equivalent the number base (2) is raised to the position of the digit, and multiplied by the digit. In this case the least significant digit is a trivial conversion. Consider the most significant digit, with a value of 1 in the 6th position. This is converted by the number base to the exponent 6 and multiplying by the digit value of 1. This method can also be used for converting the other number system to decimal.
26 = 64 25 = 32 24 = 16 23 = 8 22 = 4 
21 = 2 20 = 1
1 1 1 0 0 0 1
1(26) = 64 1(25) = 32
1(24) = 16 0(23) = 0
0(22) = 0 0(21) = 0 1(20) = 1

Figure 13.3 Conversion of a Binary Number to a Decimal Number
Decimal numbers can be converted to binary numbers using division, as shown in Figure 13.4. This technique begins by dividing the decimal number by the base of the new number. The fraction after the decimal gives the least significant digit of the new number when it is multiplied by the number base. The whole part of the number is now divided again. This process continues until the whole number is zero. This method will also work for conversion to other number bases.

multiply places after decimal by division base, in this case it is 2 because of the binary.
*This method works for other number bases also, the divisor and multipliers should be changed to the new number bases.
Figure 13.4 Conversion from Decimal to Binary
Most scientific calculators will convert between number bases. But, it is important to understand the conversions between number bases. And, when used frequently enough the conversions can be done in your head.
Binary numbers come in three basic forms - a bit, a byte and a word. A bit is a single binary digit, a byte is eight binary digits, and a word is 16 digits. Words and bytes are
plc numbers - 13.5
shown in Figure 13.5. Notice that on both numbers the least significant digit is on the right hand side of the numbers. And, in the word there are two bytes, and the right hand one is the least significant byte.

Binary numbers can also represent fractions, as shown in Figure 13.6. The conversion to and from binary is identical to the previous techniques, except that for values to the right of the decimal the equivalents are fractions.
