what is a bit?
a single 0 or 1
1 of 27
what is a byte?
8 bits
2 of 27
what is a kilobyte?
1000 bytes
3 of 27
what is a megabyte?
1000kB
4 of 27
what is a gigabyte?
1000 MB
5 of 27

how do you go from decimal to hex?
e.g. the number 20
20 divided by 16 = 1
the remainder == 4
so the hex number would be 14
('one, four')
7 of 27
how do you go from hex to decimal
e.g. 4B
4 x 16 = 64
B == 11
64 + 11 = 75
decimal= 75
('seventy five')
8 of 27
how do you go from hex to binary?
e.g. 3B
slit the two characters:
3 B
3= 0011 in binary and
B (11) = 1011 in binary
3B== 00111011

how so you go from binary to hex?
e.g. 11100101
split into two nibbles of 4 bits
1110 0101
1110 = 14 -> E
0101 = 5
11100101= E5 in hex

how do you go from decimal to binary?
e.g 70
convert to 8-bit binary:
128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

how do you go from binary to decimal?
e.g. 10101101
(8-bit)
128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
these are values on each bit
1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1

hex:?
binary:1001101
decimal:141
e.g. 10011101
split
1001 1101
1001 = 9
1101= 13
13 = D
hex== 9D

hex:5F
binary:?
decimal:95
e.g. 5F -split-
5 F
5 = 0101
F(15) = 1111
5F = 01011111
14 of 27
hex:5D
binary: 01011101
decimal:?
e.g. 5D
-split-
5 D
5 x 16 = 80
80 + D(13) = 93

what are the 2 character sets?
ASCII
Unicode
17 of 27
how many bits are in ASCII?
how many character sets does this allow?
-8 bits (in extended)
-128

how does the number of colours in an image affect the file size?
an increased number of colours that are used will
* increase *
the filesize
19 of 27
how does the size of the image affect the file size?
an *increase* number of pixels *increases*
the file size

convert a bit into a pattern:
(on paper)
1001010
1001010
1111010
1001010
1001010

lossy or lossless?
compacts file size smaller
lossy
22 of 27
lossy or lossless?
you can get bac the original file -no changes-
lossless
23 of 27
lossy or lossless?
removes sound that is outside of human hearing range/ is hard hard for humans to hear
lossy
24 of 27
lossy or lossless?
small mistakes -digital artefacts- appearing in videos/images
lossy

run length encoding:
1= white
0 = black
1110
1110
0000
0000
how would the image be encoded?
not - 4 1 1 0 4 1 1 0 5 0 5 0

you would count the 0's all as one if they weren't interrupted:
4 1 1 0 4 1 16 0
is correct
