What are the bits of a computer system?
0 and 1
Define bit in microprocessor?
: A Bit is a digit in the binary number system. It can have two values, 0 or 1. In computer RAM and ROM memory, a bit is a small electrical switch which is either on (value 1) or off (value 0).
2.In Digital there are only two type of value used Even or odd 1 or 0 0 or a None of the above?
In a computer data is represented as a series of usually binary digits. In the binary system the only numbers/values used are 0 and 1.
What does a 1 and a 0 represent in a computer?
The 1 and 0 are the binary system that computers were built on. They represent the turning on and off of electrical signals that pass information through a computer.
In computer technology what is a bit?
A bit is a binary digit, taking a value of either 0 or 1
What are the only two binary digits of a binary system which a computer can read?
0 and 1.
Is it true that each 1 and 0 in the binary system represents 1 bit of computer code?
Ye, 1 bit can either represent on "1" or off "0".
Why we use binary system?
Computer understands the changes in voltages. To be more precise, a higher voltage and a lower voltage determines the action the computer takes for an input. And to make it more simple for programmers, a higher voltage is given the value 1 and a lower voltage is assigned the value 0.
What is 1x0?
1x0=1 The physical grounds of mathematics Math is the common language in our Universe. We can explain and give value to everything with it. The mathematical system is solid. Its laws works on every component and in any circumstances. The system is 1. It contains space, time, energie, matter, information, intelligence, life, love, good will, Me, You, He/She.....everything. I can explain the system easiest if I determine the smallest component of it which is 0. In reality 0 is an energie, matter, space, time, information less nothing. Every component of the system is bigger then 0. Like this 0 means the same in math, physics, biology, teology. If I know the value of 0 I can give value to all the components in the system. The mathematical equations ALWAYS gives an accurat result. 0+0=0 0x0=0 0-0=0 0/0=0 1+0=1 1x0=1 1-0=1 1/0=1 2+0=2 2x0=2 2-0=2 2/0=2 Adding and extraction are the basic operation. Multiplaying and dividing is abstract manipulations. In reality it would look like: 1+0,1=1,1 1x0,1=1,1 1-0,1=0,9 1/0,1=10 Adding gives the common value of the components Multiplaying is a basic adding (a possitive operation!!!). With adding we determine how many times we add the original value to the original value. Subtraction: Show how much we have left after we subtract the given value. Dividing: shows how many times the divider is part of the dividend. You can not create lower value then 0. Negative value exist but it is relative in the system. Negative numbers exist in the abstract mathematics but related 0 everything is positive.
The binary system used by a digital computer consists of?
it consists of two numbers : 0 and 1
What is the base 10 number system?
In each place value there are only 10 digits that can be placed, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0. At that point then next place value is used. A different place value system in computers is the based two system. Its number system goes like this 0=0 1=1 10=2 11=3 100=4
What does the base signify in a number sustem?
Given that anything raised to the zero-th power is 1, the number 1010 can have many values depending on the base of the number system used in a particular context. In the decimal system, where the base is 10, the representation 1010 has a value equal to 1(10 raised to 3) + 0(10 raised to 2) + 1(10 raised to 1) + 0(10 raised to 0) which equals 1(1000) + 0(100) + 1(10) + 0(1) = 1000+0+10+0 = 1010 (one thousand ten) In the binary system used in computers, where the base is 2, the representation 1010 has a value equal to 1(2 raised to 3) + 0(2 raised to 2) + 1(2 raised to 1) + 0(2 raised to 0) which equals 1(8) + 0(4) + 1(2) + 0(1) = 8+0+2+0 = 10 (10 is the equivalent value in decimal). In the hexadecimal system used in computers, where the base is 16, the representation 1010 has a value equal to 1(16 raised to 3) + 0(16 raised to 2) + 1(16 raised to 1) + 0(16 raised to 0) which equals 1(4096) + 0(256) + 1(16) + 0(1) = 4096+0+16+0 = 5010 (5010 is the equivalent value in decimal). In the octal system used in computers, where the base is 8, the representation 1010 has a value equal to 1(8 raised to 3) + 0(8 raised to 2) + 1(8 raised to 1) + 0(8 raised to 0) which equals 1(512) + 0(64) + 1(8) + 0(1) = 512+0+8+0 = 520 (520 is the equivalent value in decimal). In our day to day life we use the decimal system and we understand that the base of the number system is 10 and life runs without a need to know the base since 10(decimal) is implied as the base. But when we have to deal with computers we have to be aware of which base we are using. In the decimal system there are 10 primitive symbols namely, 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and any number greater than 9 will have to be formed using these (with the associated place value of the digit). Similarly there are 2 primitive symbols in the binary system namely 0,1 and any number greater than 1 will have to be formed using these (with the associated place value of the digit). Similarly there are 16 primitive symbols in the hexadecimal system namely 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F and any number greater than F will have to be formed using these (with the associated place value of the digit). Similarly there are 8 primitive symbols in the octal system namely 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and any number greater than 7 will have to be formed using these (with the associated place value of the digit).
