The symbols for writing numbers are called numerals. A logically organized collection of numerals is called a numeration system.
We use our numeration system in just about everything that we do. We use it to tell time, when we use money, when we pay our check at a restaurant, and figuring our paycheck at work. Can you think of an example when you use our numeration system?
There are various numeration systems that exist, below are a few.
An algorithm is a word that is pretty commonly used in math; but what is an algorithm? An algorithm is a step-by-step process for computing. There are many algorithms in math, and in this blog hopefully I will be able to explain a few.
