Numeral systems

1-500, in base 2 through 10.

Very clever diagram; I wouldn't have thought of illustrating numeral systems like this. Created by User:Fredrik.

• Neutral. Took me a good minute to figure it out. Left column (b=2) is binary black white with 9 digits, b=3 has three colors with 6 digits, etc?. Needs more explanation if possible. Larger image would also be nice, the last digit is really hard to see. -- Chris 73 Talk 23:04, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)
  • Is the description better now? Fredrik | talk 16:36, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Now Support. I also changed the table on the image page a bit. -- Chris 73 Talk 03:00, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)

• Oppose. I don't think it's that informative, it's more of a gimmick. Junes 21:59, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• In what way is this a "gimmick"? For base 2, it is a perfectly legitimate representation. For bases 3 through 10, using a shade rather than a shape is actually a =better= way of indicating the relationships between the bases than using numerals. Denni☯ 00:52, 2005 Mar 12 (UTC)
  • It's a gimmick in the sense that it doesn't aid the understanding of the concept very much, which is a must for an image with minimal esthetical value Junes 11:09, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose, agree with Junes. Thue | talk 00:09, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
