The decimal number system is an example of a positional system, in which, after the base b has been adopted, the digits 1, 2, …, b − 1 are given special names, and all larger numbers are written as sequences of these digits.
The special position occupied by 10 stems from the number of human fingers, of course, and it is still evident in modern usage not only in the logical structure of the decimal number system but in the English names for the numbers.

For most GAs, the candidate solutions are represented by chromosomes coded with either a binary number system or a real decimal number system.
In the base ten (decimal) number system, integer powers of 10 are written as the digit 1 followed or preceded by a number of zeroes determined by the sign and magnitude of the exponent.
