Explanation:

In computer and electronic sciences, binary coded decimal system (BCD) is a group of binary representation of digital number especially in 4 and 8 bits. (In case of error overflow, special bit character patterns are implemented).

The use of the binary coded decimal system is to ease the human interpretation of digital quantitative, but the only disadvantage of the binary coded decimal system is the lack of storage space and over complexity of basic mathematics. The binary coded decimal table where digital numbers are given a 4digit binary value is also known as 8421 encoding table.
