Basic digits numbers are decimals. The decimal number system is used by many people daily. Also referred to as denary, the decimal number system is a base 10 number system, meaning it is comprised of 10 digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9.

Octal numbers, sometimes referred to as oct, are base 8 numbers. The octal number system consists of only eight digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7.

Octal number example:
6278 = 6×82+2×81+7×80 = 158010

The base 8 system is often used in computing applications because one octal digit evenly represents three binary bits, which are cleanly divisible in 6, 12, 24, and 36-bit computer systems. Since most modern computer systems are 16, 32, or 64-bit systems, and these are cleanly divisible into base 16 numbers, the hexadecimal system is more commonly used today.
