The Abjad numerals are a decimal numeral system which was used in the Arabic-speaking world prior to the use of the Hindu-Arabic numerals from the 8th century. In the Abjad system, the 28 letters of the Arabic alphabet are assigned numerical values, based on the Abjadi order. ...more on Wikipedia about "Abjad numerals"

In mathematics, the absolute value (or modulus 1) of a real number is its numerical value without regard to its sign. So, for example, 3 is the absolute value of both 3 and −3. In computers, the mathematical function used to perform this calculation is usually given the name abs(). ...more on Wikipedia about "Absolute value"

Algorism originally is a name for the rules of performing arithmetic using the decimal system for representing numbers, that is, numbers written using ten symbols having the values 0 through 9. ...more on Wikipedia about "Algorism"

Arabic numerals is the term usually applied to the "Western" variant of the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, commonly used in conjunction with the Latin alphabet since Early Modern times ( 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9).

Base- , tridecimal, or tredecimal is a nonstandard positional numeral system with thirteen as its base. It uses 13 different digits for representing numbers. Suitable digits for base 13 could be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, X, E and T (similar to base 12) or 0-9, A, B and C (similar to base 16).

Base 36 is a positional numeral system using 36 as the radix.. The choice of 36 is convenient in that the digits can be represented using the Arabic numerals 0-9 and the Latin letters A-Z. Base 36 is therefore the most compact case-insensitive alphanumeric numeral system using ASCII characters, although its radix economy is poor. (Compare with base 16 and base 64.) ...more on Wikipedia about "Base 36"

The binary numeral system ( base- 2) represents numeric values using two symbols, typically 0 and 1. More specifically, binary is a positional notation with a radix of two. Owing to its relatively straightforward implementation in electronic circuitry, the binary system is used internally by virtually all modern computers. ...more on Wikipedia about "Binary numeral system"

A chronogram is a sentence or inscription in which specific letters, interpreted as numerals, stand for a particular date when rearranged. The word, meaning "time writing," derives from the Greek words chronos ("time") and gramma ("letter"). Longer chronograms are referred to as chronosticha, if they are a hexameter, and chronodisticha if they are a distich. ...more on Wikipedia about "Chronogram"

The term computer numbering formats refers to the schemes implemented in digital computer and calculator hardware and software to represent numbers. A common mistake made by non-specialist computer users is a certain faith in the infallibility of numerical computations. For example, if one multiplies, say: ...more on Wikipedia about "Computer numbering formats"

Counting is the mathematical action of repeatedly adding (or subtracting) one, usually to find out how many objects there are or to set aside a desired number of objects (starting with one for the first object and proceeding with a one-to-one correspondence). However, counting is also used (primarily by children) to demonstrate knowledge of the number names and the number system. ...more on Wikipedia about "Counting"

Elias omega coding is a universal code encoding the positive integers. Like Elias gamma coding and Elias delta coding, it works by prefixing the integer with a representation of its order of magnitude in a universal code. Unlike those other two codes, however, Elias omega uses itself recursively to encode that prefix; thus, they are sometimes known as recursive Elias codes. ...more on Wikipedia about "Elias omega coding"
