decimalInfinite: All Decimals In Bits, No Loss, Same Order, Simple

TL;DR

This paper presents decimalInfinite, a binary encoding for decimals that preserves all information and order, supports arbitrary precision, and is simple to implement and understand.

Contribution

The paper introduces decimalInfinite, a universal binary encoding for decimals that is lossless, order-preserving, and straightforward to implement.

Findings

Supports arbitrarily large and small decimals

Preserves information and order completely

Simple to explain and implement

Abstract

This paper introduces a binary encoding that supports arbitrarily large, small and precise decimals. It completely preserves information and order. It does not rely on any arbitrary use-case-based choice of calibration and is readily implementable and usable, as is. Finally, it is also simple to explain and understand.
