What Does EBCDC Stand For?

EBCDC stands for Extended Binary Coded Decimal

EBCDC, or Extended Binary Coded Decimal, is a binary encoding scheme that represents decimal numbers using groups of four bits for each decimal digit, with additional bits to accommodate extended values and operations. This format enhances the standard Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) by allowing for greater precision and the representation of a wider range of decimal numbers, making it particularly useful in financial, scientific, and engineering applications where decimal accuracy is crucial.
