Base-Neutral Base Annotations
Pages within this wiki compare dozenal quantities of Primel units with many decimal quantities of the International System of Units (SI) and the United States Customary (USC) system. To avoid confusion, this wiki explicitly annotates the base of every number longer than a single digit. It uses the standard mathematical convention which places the base annotation into a right subscript. However, instead of expressing the base itself as a number in decimal, a subscript “d” indicates that the base is decimal, and a subscript “z” indicates the base is dozenal: For instance, ᘔz = 10d, Ɛz = 11d, 10z = 12d, 100z = 144d, etc.
This wiki also uses a subscript “x” to indicate base sixteen, also known as “hexadecimal” (base 16d), or (in SNNz) as “unquadral” (base 14z). For instance, 90x = 100z = 144d.
