Split octal is a numeric representation used in some computing contexts, notably in the field of programming and computer science. It refers to a method of expressing octal (base-8) numbers by splitting them into two distinct parts for easier readability or processing. In split octal, each digit of an octal number is represented by two separate digits, typically where the first digit corresponds to its normal value and the second digit is usually some indication of its position or significance.
