How do you calculate how many decimal numbers an amount of bits represents? - Answer -
2^(number of bits - 1)
- ex. 3 bits
- 2^2 = 4 decimal numbers
binary - Answer - within the number of bits use all the different combinations
- combinations of 1s and 0s go from smallest to biggest
- once you run out of combinations move to next number of bits
- 1 byte used for each letter
- binary used for computers because 1 and 0 are like on and off switches
How many bits is in and what is the decimal representation of 1 byte? - Answer 8 bits and
256 in decimal representation
binary to decimal conversion - Answer - each digit individually converted
- 2^(the number placing of the digit if 0 is for the most right end digit)*(the binary number so
either 1 or 0) is the value of each digit
- the value of each digit added together is the decimal number
- same system for others like hexadecimal is 16 and quartenary is 4 instead of 2
- ex. 1001 = 9
- if right most digit is 1 it is odd
What is the decimal number for the binary number 1110? - Answer 2^3*1 + 2^2*1 + 2^1*1 +
2^0*0 = 14
two steps in converting analog to digital - Answer Step 1: Sampling
Step 2: Quantizing
