Question : |
What are Numerals ? |
Answer : |
Numerals are used to name numbers, in other words, a numeral is a symbol used to represent a number.
|
For Example,
|
The number
4 is the name of number four. And again four is the idea that describes any collection of four objects. 4 marbles, 4 books,
4 people, 4 colours, and so on. We recognize that these collections all have the quality of fourness even though they may
differ in every other way.
|
The simplest numeral system is the unary numeral system,
in which every natural number is represented by a corresponding number of symbols.
