The duodecimal (also known as base-twelve or dozenal) system is a numeral system using twelve as its base.
The number 12 has four factors, which are 2, 3, 4 and 6. It is a more convenient number system for computing fractions compared with the decimal or vigesimal system.
The decimal system has only two factors, which are 2 and 5. Also the vigesimal system has fo ...

Base 64 literally means a positional numbering system using a base of 64. It is the largest power of two base that can be represented using only printable ASCII characters. This has led to its use as a transfer encoding for email among other things. All well-known variants that are known by the name Base64 use the characters A–Z, a–z, and 0–9 in that order for the first 62 digits but ...

Base 13 is a nonstandard positional numeral system. It may also be called tredecimal or tridecimal. As its names state, 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 13 is not used in any practical situation.

Base 30 or trigesimal is a positional numeral system using 30 as the radix. Digits in this base can be represented using the Hindu-Arabic numerals 0-9 and the Latin letters A-T.
From a mathematical viewpoint, 30 is a convenient choice for a base in that it is divisible by the three smallest prime numbers (2, 3, and 5) and by their multiples 6, 10, and 15 — many vulgar fracti ...

Babylonian numerals were written in cuneiform, using a wedge-tipped reed stylus to make a mark on a soft clay tablet which would be exposed in the sun to harden to create a permanent record.
The Babylonians, who were famous for their astrological observations and calculations (aided by their invention of the abacus), used a sexagesimal (base-60) positional numeral system inherited from the Sumerian a ...

The Hindu-Arabic numeral system (also called Algorism) is a positional decimal numeral system documented from the 9th century. An important characteristic of the system is the use of a numeral digit zero. Further enhancements of the system include use of a decimal marker and a symbol for "these digits recur ad infinitum".
The symbols (glyphs) used to represent the system are in p ...

Attic numerals were used by ancient Greeks, possibly from the 7th century BC. They were also known as Herodianic numerals because they were first described in a 2nd century manuscript by Herodianus. They are also known as acrophonic numerals because all of the symbols used (except for 1) derive from the first letters of the words for 'five', 'ten', 'hundred', 'thousand' and 'ten thousand'. See ...

The system of Armenian numerals is a historic numeral system originating using the (capital) letters of the ancient Armenians. In modern Armenia, the familiar Arabic numerals are used. There was no notation for zero in the old system, and the numeric values for individual letters were added together. The principles behind this system are the same as for the Ancient Greek numerals and Hebrew numerals.

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.)
