What is the difference between Analog and Digital Data?
Analog data: A continuous representation, similar to the actual information it represents.
Digital data: A discrete representation, breaking the information up into separate elements.
100
A gate that requires both values to be true/equal to 1.
What is an AND Gate?

Which would run faster: Python or Assembly and why?
Assembly because it is a low-level language and contains less data/work such as syntax, classes etc.
