Numbers on number spirals can be represented in different number systems. For example, consider the numbers on the main axis of some spirals in different number systems. Table 1 shows the numbers on the main axis of the 2-spiral in binary, decimal and hexadecimal numeral systems.

If you use angle units of measurement and an arbitrary spiral to visually display natural numbers, then all numbers can be ordered according to the following rules:
1. On the main axis of the a-spiral there are numbers of the form an in ascending order, where а>1, n≥0.

Number spirals are a representation of natural numbers on a spiral in units of measurement of angles. Following certain rules for placing numbers allows you to get an infinite spiral multiplication table for any natural number а>1.

The successive powers of two from 0 to 29 are presented in the table above. The table of powers of the number 2 begins with the exponent zero. Any number to the zero power is equal to one. Therefore, 2 to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Any number to the first power is equal to itself. Therefore, 2 to the power of 1 is equal to 2.

If you take any sum, then all other sums can be divided into three groups: identical sums, decomposition sums, and other sums. The classification criteria are the terms and the result of the addition.
Identical sums
Identical sums are combined into a separate group by the commutativity property. Sums from this group have pairwise identical terms and an equal number of terms.

The use of a shift in arithmetic leads to the addition of terms with different units of measurement.
Consider the results of a shift in arithmetic addition. A shift is possible when performing addition in a column. For example, let's take a three-digit number and add to it the same number without a shift, with a shift by one position and with a shift by two positions.
