2. BCD (character encoding) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BCD_(character_encoding)

   The BCD code is the adaptation of the punched card code to a six-bit binary code by encoding the digit rows (nine rows, plus unpunched) into the low four bits, and the zone rows (three rows, plus unpunched) into the high two bits. [4] The digit zero (a single punch in row 0) is usually handled specially in some way, and the digit code was ...

3. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

   This scheme can also be referred to as Simple Binary-Coded Decimal (SBCD) or BCD 8421, and is the most common encoding. [12] Others include the so-called "4221" and "7421" encoding – named after the weighting used for the bits – and "Excess-3". [13]

4. Six-bit character code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-bit_character_code

   Six-bit BCD code was the adaptation of the punched card code to binary code. IBM applied the terms binary-coded decimal and BCD to the variations of BCD alphamerics used in most early IBM computers, including the IBM 1620 , IBM 1400 series , and non- decimal architecture members of the IBM 700/7000 series .

5. Chen–Ho encoding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chen–Ho_encoding

   Chen–Ho encoding is a memory-efficient alternate system of binary encoding for decimal digits.. The traditional system of binary encoding for decimal digits, known as binary-coded decimal (BCD), uses four bits to encode each digit, resulting in significant wastage of binary data bandwidth (since four bits can store 16 states and are being used to store only 10), [1] even when using packed BCD.

6. Double dabble - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_dabble

   Double dabble. In computer science, the double dabble algorithm is used to convert binary numbers into binary-coded decimal (BCD) notation. [1][2] It is also known as the shift-and-add -3 algorithm, and can be implemented using a small number of gates in computer hardware, but at the expense of high latency. [3]

7. Aiken code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aiken_code

   The Aiken code (also known as 2421 code) [1][2] is a complementary binary-coded decimal (BCD) code. A group of four bits is assigned to the decimal digits from 0 to 9 according to the following table. The code was developed by Howard Hathaway Aiken and is still used today in digital clocks, pocket calculators and similar devices [citation needed].
