Study Notes
Binary Number System
- The rightmost digit in a binary number has a weight of 1.
- A byte consists of 8 bits.
- The decimal equivalent of the binary number 101.01 is 5.25.
Octal Number System
- The decimal value of the octal number 7562 is 3962.
- Octal numbers utilize digits from 0 to 7.
- Octal to binary conversion can be achieved by replacing each octal digit with its corresponding 3-bit binary representation.
Number System Basics
- The radix of decimal numbers is 10.
- The binary number system has a base of 2.
- The weighted number system that starts from 100 = 1 and increases from right to left is known as binary.
ASCII Encoding
- ASCII is a character encoding standard that uses 7 bits for encoding.
- The original ASCII encoded 128 characters.
- Extended ASCII was introduced to accommodate 256 characters (including the original 128) to support additional symbols and characters.
- The first 32 characters in ASCII are non-printable control characters used for text formatting and control tasks.
- In 1981, IBM introduced PCs using ASCII, which helped standardize character encoding across computers.
- The purpose of extended ASCII is to provide additional characters for various languages and graphical representations.
