The 0x0 partition type is like a zero-zero partition. It is a partition that has the zero as the leftmost position. It is typically used in a binary format, but it can also be used as a partition type in a decimal format.
We have a binary partition type and a decimal partition type. Both of these types can be used to store NUL and also other special characters. The binary partition type is used to store the “0000” bits, which is why 0x0 is used to specify a binary partition.
That is why a binary partition type can be used to store a NUL character. A NUL character is a special character that is normally stored as a NUL byte.
There are a few ways to represent binary data as decimal.
For example, the following decimal representation, 000101, is 1001 bits long and can be represented as 010101. 000101 + 1 = 1001, so 000101 is 01010101.
For our purposes though, we can think of 00010101 as 1 bit 0’s, which is the same as 1011 bits and 00010101 as 01010101.
The binary-to-decimal conversion can be done by converting binary number to decimal. If a binary number is stored as a decimal, it can be decoded into binary.
This can be done because binary numbers can be used to represent numbers that go from 0 to 255. If a binary number is 0 or 1, those are the only two possible decimal representations.
This is the way the 0x0 partition type is defined in our own binary-to-decimal converter.
