  Unary
The unary numeral system is the simplest system for representing natural numbers.
Unary may also be considered the base-1 numeral system, with the exception that the unary digit represents the number 1 instead of 0, unlike numeral systems of other bases, where digits typically range from 0 to the base minus one.
Compared to positional numeral systems, the unary system is inconvenient and is not used in practice.

 Unary coding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Unary coding is an entropy encoding that represents a Natural number, n, with n-1 ones followed by a zero.
Unary coding is easily shown to be an optimally efficient encoding for the following discrete probability distribution
A modified unary encoding is used in UTF-8.

 Dr. Dobb's | Effective Standard C++ Library: Unary Predicates in the STL | April 15, 2003
Unary predicates are usually fairly simple functions, which nevertheless must follow a few restrictions to be used reliably.
A unary predicate must be order-insensitive, which means that the effect of calling the predicate must be independent of the order in which sequence elements are supplied to it.
A unary predicate must be independent of the order of invocation and may yield different results for different invocations with the same argument.

 Unary - Esolang
Unary is an esoteric programming language designed by Lode Vandevenne in 2005.
Some say the EOF character has to be counted as well, thus Unary uses 2 symbols.
Unary still has one symbol less than a Turing tarpit that uses two symbols in its specification, since such a language also has an extra EOF symbol.

 unary - a definition from Whatis.com
The term unary defines operators in Boolean (binary) algebra, trinary algebra, arithmetic, and set theory.
Sometimes a unary operation is called a monadic operation or a singulary operation.
In common arithmetic, the unary operators are negation, the reciprocal, and the absolute value.

 Math Forum - Ask Dr. Math
Date: 09/01/99 at 22:51:05 From: Tyler Longman Subject: Unary operator precedence / examples My Dad, who is a programmer, brought up the question of the precedence of unary operators with respect to what I'm learning in math.
The PEMDAS rule for order of operations ignores unary operators, and my Dad, despite his trying for several hours, was unable to come up with a problem that displayed the effects of not giving unary operators their proper precedence.
His knowledge of unary operator precedence comes from the world of computer programming, not necessarily the same as in the mathematics world (computer software vendors occasionally develop their own precedence schemes).

 xkr.us / javascript / unary + operator
It is possible to use the Object constructor, passing a convertible value and then using the unary operator to convert the value to a number.
The unary + operator has the same precedence as the other unary operators as described by MSDN.
The unary + operator is the most useful when one needs to convert a string into a number, which happens often during the course of web development.

 Unary Operators
What is happening here from an expression evaluation viewpoint is that the value of two represented by the number 2 is accepted as a single operand by the unary operator, '+', and that operation produces a value of positive two.
But, of course, the value of two represented by the number 2 is positive to start with, so, this operation is not too exciting, (no pun intended).
Here there are two unary negative sign operators looking around, as we might say, for operands.

The standard library provides both a standard set of function objects, and a pair of classes that you can use as the base for creating your own function objects.
Unary function objects are required to provide the typedefs argument_type and result_type.
The unary_function class makes the task of creating templated unary function objects easier by providing the necessary typedefs for a unary function object.
