Base 8, also known as octal, is a positional numeral system with a base of 8. In base 8, numbers are represented using digits from 0 to 7. Each digit's place value is a power of 8, with the rightmost digit representing 8^0, the next representing 8^1, and so on. Converting numbers to and from base 8 involves multiplying each digit by the corresponding power of 8 and summing the results.
