Hi Bill'

Would you please explain what an " octal digit " is?  I have searched
Wikipedia and a couple of other places and I'm having no luck.  I have never
heard of this term before, that I recall anyway.  Thanks much.  Take care.
Mike

 Remember that when a number begins with a zero (0) that indicates an octal
 digit.
