Part I: Bits and Bytes
Computers use the base-2 number system, also known as the binary number system, which is a lot easier to implement in current electronic technology than a base-10 numbers system as we use.
The binary system works as follows:
|
0 |
00000000 |
0*20 = 0 |
|
1 |
00000001 |
(0x21) + (1x20)= 1x1 =1 |
|
2 |
00000010 |
(1x21) + (0x20)= 1x2 + 0x0 =2 |
|
3 |
00000011 |
(1x21) + (1x20)= 1x2 +1x1 = 3 |
|
11 |
00001011 |
(1x23) +(0x22) + (1x21) + (1x20) = 8 + 0 + 2 + 1 = 11 |
To practice, answer the following questions
