Abstract: The paper discusses the information approach to the investigation of numeration systems aimed at recognizing the degree of their informational optimality. The method of investigation is based on the Benford’s Law and the principle of information cyclicity. The discovery of the unique optimality of commonly used decimal system is the end result of the investigation. Along with theoretical significance this is of practical use in applied metrology.
