I saw people making a joke about this in a comment section and I couldn’t seem to understand what they were talking about. Can someone fill me in?
In: Mathematics
Examples
Base 10 is:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Base 8 is:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
There is no “8” or “9” in Base 8, but the rest of arithmetic is the same.
The number 8 in Base 8 is “10”. You run out of digits so you shift one over and start counting. The number 12 in Base 8 is “14”.
