What is a bitmask?
A bitmask is a pattern of bits indicating which bits in a second pattern are to be modified.
What are three types of drill bits?
Hss drill bits, Titanium coated drill bits and brad point drill bits.
What is the difference between parity and non-parity memory?
Non-parity memory is memory without parity. Parity memory is memory with extra bits, sometimes one, sometimes more, that accompany the word. These extra parity bits are generated to a known value, typically to make the total number of bits on that word even or odd. When the word is retrieved, the parity bits are compared against what they should be. If they are different, then one or more of the bits in the original word or in the parity bits must have changed. This is an error condition that can be trapped. In a multiple parity bit system, the calculation of the bits allows not only for the detection of a changed bit, but also for the identification of which bit changed. This is known as ECC parity, or Error-Correcting-Code. Often, you can detect and correct any one bit error, and you can detect, but not correct, any two bit error. Since random bits changes are rare, those that do occur are usually one bit errors, making ECC parity valuable for high reliability systems such as servers.
What is the minimum number of bits would you need to represent 9 different values?
4.1 bit for 2,2 bits for 4,3 bits for 8,4 bits for 16.
Word size of todays processors is bits or bits?
32, 64
What is a bitmask?
A bitmask is a pattern of bits indicating which bits in a second pattern are to be modified.
How is a message sent along an optical fiber?
Information can be carried on a radio signal by changing its amplitude, according to a pattern that the sender and receiver agree on. Information can be carried on a light beam by changing its amplitude (brightness), according to a pattern that the sender and receiver agree on. Information can be carried on a radio signal by changing its frequency, according to a pattern that the sender and receiver agree on. Information can be carried on a light beam by changing its frequency (color), according to a pattern that the sender and receiver agree on. Digital bits can be carried on a radio signal by simply turning the signal on and off to denote ones and zeros. Digital bits can be carried on a light beam by simply turning the light on and off to denote ones and zeros.
What are 4 bits?
A group of four bits is known as a nibble.
The number of bits processed in a single instruction is known as?
8 Bits
What is a 8 pattern of 8 bits?
A bit is an on/off switch. There are 8 bits in one byte.
The memory stores binary information in group of bits called?
a group of 8 bits is known as byte and a group of 4bits is known as nibble..
What is bits of glass formed into a pattern called?
Mosaic
Bits of glass or tile that are formed into a pattern?
Mosaic
How many bits are need to represent colors?
Most modern digital cameras use 24 bits (8 bits per primary) to represent a color. But more or less can be used, depending on the quality desired. Many early computer graphics cards used only 4 bits to represent a color.
What is redundent information?
Informational redundancy is the number of bits that it takes to transmit the desired message minus the actual number of bits that the message contains. In other words, it is the extra bandwidth required to send a message.
A half byte is known as?
Half a byte (4 bits) is known as a nibble.
What are frilled lizards known for?
Having frilly bits
