Digital Information
The act of putting data or information into an electronic device.
What is digitization?
The SMALLEST number for which an overflow error occurs in a 4-bit system.
What is 16?
This describes how computers represent data as either a 0 or a 1.
What is bits?
Between lossy and lossless compression algorithms, this one is typically better at reducing the number of bits needed to represent a piece of data
What is lossy compression algorithms?
The way we describe how a painting is represented in real life.
What is analog?
This is true when some numbers are too large to be represented by a computer with a fixed number of bits.
What is overflow errors?
The binary number 1001 in base-10.
What is 9?
If Jorge compresses an image before sending it this is the result.
What is the image will require fewer bits?
The color purple in RGB with one bit per color.
What is 101?
The issue with representing (some) decimals in a binary system.
What is a rounding error?
The decimal number 20 in binary.
What is 10100?
For Ryan's app that needs to quickly send low-quality photos, this type of compression is the most suitable.
What is lossy compression?
The system we use to encode text and characters in binary.
What is ASCII?
The way to explain what happens to the number of numbers you can represent as you increase bits by one.
What is doubling?
When looking at a binary number that is a 1 followed by zeros you can tell which one is larger by this method. (Example: 100 vs 1000)
What is how many bits there are?
This kind of compression is found when sending abbreviations or slang provided both parties (sender and receiver) know the slang/abbreviation.
What is lossless compression?
This describes the difference between a painting and its digital photo stored on a phone.
What is the photo is a digital representation of the analog painting?
The result of adding 110 and 001 in binary.
What is 7?
The total number of unique numbers that can be represented with an 8-bit binary system.
What is 256?
The difference between lossless and lossy compression.
