System Concept

The Information Processing Cycle (IPC) consists of four main stages:
- Input: Data is entered into the system.
- Process: The data is manipulated and transformed.
- Output: The processed information is presented to the user.
- Storage: The data and results are saved for future use.

Number System and Representation

Storage Capacity Conversions:
- 8192 Bits = 1024 Bytes
- 1 Megabyte = 8,388,608 Bits
- 3 Gigabyte (GB) = 3,072 Kilobyte (KB)
- 1024 Kilobyte (KB) = 8,388,608 Bits
Conversions between Number Systems:
- Binary to Hexadecimal:
  - 1110111010101012 = EEDAA516
  - 0111111012 = 7E916
  - 111101102 = F616
- Hexadecimal to Decimal:
