While either the octal cardinals or their binary numbers have shown complementary characteristics of 7 about the dotted axis XX', both octal diagrams (a) and (b) reveal likewise in exactly the same manner. 10. The fact that the binary trinities have the characteristics of being complements lend themselves to the addition of the complement of a number in lieu of its subtraction just as a purely binary machine does. In closing, it may be noted with significant implications that, while the Chinese abacus [7] constitutes the oldest bi-quinary computing device, the binary trinities of the octal diagrams, which were derived by the Chinese ancients circa 26 centuries before the earliest prototype of the Chinese abacus, reveal all the necessary characteristics that are required in the internal number representation in an ultra-inodern electronic digital computer.
