    The document provides information about binary and decimal number systems, digital data, bytes, base 2, and converting between number systems. It discusses that binary uses 0s and 1s while decimal uses base 10, and both can do calculations. It defines a byte as the basic unit of computer storage and that 8 bits equals 1 byte. Examples are given of converting decimal numbers to binary and adding binary numbers. Overflow errors from binary addition are also discussed.

    Homework
    similarity and the difference between binary numbers and decimal numbers

    The Difference

    -The number system with base 10 is called decimal system.

    -The number system with base 2 is called binary system.

    The Similarity

    - They both can do the calculations.


    What is digital data?

    Digital data is a kind of numbers (0,1) that computers can easily


    understand. If you click letter H, you will see the letter. But for the
    computer, it is not the letter H. They understand with 01001000.
    What is a byte?

    A byte is the basic unit of information in computer storage and


    processing.

    8 bits is equal to 1 byte.


    What is base 2 mean?

    Base 2 mean the binary, has only two digits (1 and 0).
    Done my homework!
    What does 24 look like when it is stored as:
    (a) A value in binary ?
    (b) ASCII ?

    (a) A value in binary is 00011000.


    (b) ASCII is 0110010 0110101.
    When you type a character on your keyboard,
    what data is sent to the computer ?

    When we type a character on our keyboards, digital data ( Binary data)


    is sent to the computer.
    Why is ASCII limited to 256 characters ?

    ASCII limited to 256 characters because ASCII uses 8 bits to represent a


    character.
    What advantages are there to using Unicode instead of
    ASCII ?

    ❏ Stands for universal character set


    ❏ Supports a wide range of characters
    ❏ Uses 8 bit, 16 bit or 32 bit depending on the encoding
    type
    ❏ Requires more space
    ❏ Unicode represent 65,536 characters ( 2 power by 16 =
    65,536)

    Convert the decimal number 67 to binary.

    128s 64s 32s 16s 8s 2s Units


    0 1 0 0 0 1 1
    67-64=3 3-2=1 1-1=0
    What is the largest decimal number that can be showing using 8
    bits?

    255s is the largest decimal number that can be showing using 8


    bits.
    Complete the following binary addition, showing the
    overflow error: 01011100+11001000
    Convert the following decimal numbers into binary and show that adding them
    together causes an overflow.150+120
    150=10010110
    120=10001000

    What is 1+1 in binary?

    In binary, 1+1= 10.


    What are the four rules of binary addition?

    1. 0+0 =00
    2. 0+1 =01
    3. 1+1 =10
    4. 1+1+1 =11
    Complete this binary addition: 00101101+00100101
    Convert all the numbers in the sum in question 3 to
    decimal.

    Explain in your own words how pixels are used to make a
    digital image.
    Pixel is the smallest item of information in an image.
    Describe how sampling is used to capture audio on a
    computer.
    The computer cannot save as continuous data. We save with digital
    data that can be stored in bytes in memory.
    How are colour depth and resolution used to create
    high-quality images?
    For depth, we use to stored pixels to high-quality image.
    For resolution, we used many pixels to high-quality image.
    High-quality image files are larger than low-quality
    files. Why is that?
    High-quality image files are larger than low-quality files because they
    have to use more pixels to make high-quality image. ( a pixel has
    binary code. If you use many pixel, there will many binary code and the
    file become larger.)
    Activity
    Create your own two-colour picture in 8*8 grid.
    Convert each line in grid into a byte: white=1,
    black=0.
    Exchange your binary code with a partner.
    Use the binary code to redraw your partner’s
    image.
    00000000, 00000000, 00100100, 00000000, 01000010, 00100100,
    00011000, 00000000.
    Challenge
    Create an information sheet that explains how sampling is
    used to capture and store audio in a digital data file.
    Search the web to find an image and more information about
    sampling.
    A computer cannot save continuous data. The computer must
    break up continuous data into chunks that can be stored in bytes in
    its memory. This process called sampling.

    What are bits and bytes?

    Each digit in the binary number system is called bits.


    When eight bits are together in a group, it is a byte.
    What is another name for the base 2 number system?

    Another name for the base 2 number system is binary system.


    Show how to convert the decimal value 172 into binary.

    172 = 10101100
    Show how to add together the binary numbers 00011011 and
    00101001.
    Do the same sun in decimal to check your answer.
    Explain why the two 1s in this binary number do not
    have the same value: 00100010.
    The two 1s in this binary number do not have same value because of
    their different place of value( by the table of binary). The first 1 value is
    64 and the second 1 value is 2.
    Explain what happens when you add these two bytes
    together: 01101010+10011000

    If you add these two bytes together, you will get overflow error.
