Edit Question
Title
Body
I know unsigned, two's complement, ones' complement, sign magnitude, and the difference between these. But what I'm curious about is: Why is it called two's (or ones') complement? Is there a more general N's complement? In which way did these geniuses deduce such a natural way to represent negative numbers?
