I don't know how people would do it, but programs on a modern computer are designed to take different hues of a colour and translate into numbers. Let us say that I am scanning an image of a rainbow.

I happen to know from a previous computer course, and my private studies, that a computer is programmed to "know" hundreds of colours(different blues, reds, etc).

I believe black is #0000.

Through a light sensor, the scanner takes each fragment of the image, I believe each the size of a pixel, and matches it with the appropriate colour in it's memory, thus reproducing the image.

What does 110110 translate to?

dude! seriously?! if it binary then it is 54. Hexadecimal it is 1114384. octal it is 36939. depends what base you consider it. you can take any base you want.


'How does a C plus plus code execute on a computer system' like does the computer has a library or such that can understand C plus language and translate it into binary?

By execution time, the code has already been translated into binary ("compiled"). However, the program may still rely on outside libraries (.dlls for example) that have also been pre-compiled.


Is a full binary tree the same as a complete binary tree, or are there differences between the two structures?

A full binary tree is a type of binary tree where each node has either 0 or 2 children. A complete binary tree is a binary tree where all levels are fully filled except possibly for the last level, which is filled from left to right. So, a full binary tree can be a complete binary tree, but not all complete binary trees are full binary trees.


How many types of binary tree?

A binary tree is type of tree with finite number of elements and is divided into three main parts. the first part is called root of the tree and itself binary tree which exists towards left and right of the tree. There are a no. of binary trees and these are as follows : 1) rooted binary tree 2) full binary tree 3) perfect binary tree 4) complete binary tree 5) balanced binary tree 6) rooted complete binary tree


How do you translate binary to English?

Binary is a form of mathematical notation, not a language. In binary, there are only 2 digits, 0 and 1, called "bits", for "binary digits". It is the prevalent system used in electronics and computers because it matches the most closely how these circuits work, either there is a current (1) or there is not (0). In binary, numbers from 0 to 10 go as: 0, 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, 1001, 1010. In computers, English letters are represented under 8 bits, forming a byte (group of 8 bits). The first widespread representation was called ASCII and actually used only 7 bits originally. Each number, letter, sign, and some other characters were assigned a code from 1 to 127. For instance, the number 65 was used for the letter "A", 66 for "B", etc. These numeric codes could be represented in decimal values, like 65, or 41 in hexadecimal, or 100 0001 in binary. All correspond to the same number under different notation systems. Most calculator software offer a "scientific" view where you can enter a number in one notation and have it converted into another, if you want to translate binary into decimal.
