    • ASCII
      • American Standard Code for Information Interchange
      • extended ASCII contains 256 characters
    • sound
      • analogue sound is pure unaltered sound e.g a singer without a mic.
      • digital sound is computerised sound that is often altered to reduce the file size, therefore it is not pure.
      • sampling is a simple recording of snippets at set intervals.
      • metadata tells the computer what type of file it is so that the computer can use the file correctly.
      • clipping is when the computer clips out the sounds that the human cant hear to reduce the file size of the sound.
    • representing images
      • colour depth makes the image look more realistic but increases the file size of the image.
      • metadata tells the computer what type of file it is so that the computer can use the file correctly.
      • high resolution makes an image smaller with the same quality or larger with higher quality, it increases the file size.
      • a pixel is the smallest addressable point of an image, images displayed on a computer or made of lots of pixels.
      • a bitmap is an image representation that corresponds to bits of information.
