Sensei Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) I know about octal and hexadecimal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal But it's mathematics, not engineering.. Unless you meant software engineering? But it's part of computer science area. Edited January 11, 2016 by Sensei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imatfaal Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Do you mean in metal-graphite compounds (MetalC6 and MetalC8)? Would be better to ask in Chemistry in that case. Like Sensei I don't immediately see an Engineering connexion with your question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kisai Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 They are both really just ways for human beings to chunk strings of binary numbers. Your computer will only deal with 0's and 1's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
