Bits And Bytes

What is a digit?
A digit is a single place that can hold numerical values between 0 and 9. Digits are normally combined together in groups to create larger numbers
“normal” counting numbers used in everyday life a based on what sequence of numbers?
Digits are normally combined together in groups to create larger numbers. For example, 6,357 has four digits. It is understood that in the number 6,357, the 7 is filling the "1s place," while the 5 is filling the 10s place, the 3 is filling the 100s place and the 6 is filling the 1,000s place. So you could express things this way if you wanted to be explicit:



(6 * 1000) + (3 * 100) + (5 * 10) + (7 * 1) = 6000 + 300 + 50 + 7 = 6357

Where does the word bit originate from?

 The word BIT was first used in a 1948 Paper. Theword bit is a portmanteau word for binary digit or a possibly binary digit.

Binary numbers don’t use base 10. What base do they use? What digits are available in base 2?

It operates in BASE 2, the numbers that make up the base 2 system are 0 and 1.

 

 

( 4 * 1000) + ( 3* 100) + ( 2*10 ) = ( 1 *1) = 4000 + 300 + 20 + 1

A group of binary digits or bits (usually eight) operated on as a unit.

Synopsis

Synopsis

Our film tells the different journey that a coin goes through, it will show the passing and loosing of this coin. The point of our video is to inform the viewer that you never know where something has been. It is our story of how a coin travels through different hands and has been through a lot in its 'life' as it rolls through rain, dirt, gets stuck on someones shoe etc. Hopefully we will come up with different situations the coin is present in..

Extension 2

The 2 ISP providers that are used in my area are DIAL UP and WIFI.

DIAL UP
Dial-up Internet access is a form of Internet access that uses the facilities of the public switched telephone network (PSTN) to establish a dialed connection to an Internet service provider (ISP) via telephone lines. The user's computer or router uses an attached modem to encode and decode Internet Protocol packets and control information into and from analogue audio frequency signals, respectively.
The term was coined during the early days of computer telecommunications when modems were needed to connect terminals or computers running terminal emulator software to mainframes, minicomputers, online services and bulletin board systems via a telephone line.
WIFI
Wi-Fi is a wireless standard for connecting electronic devices. A Wi-Fi enabled device such as a personal computer, video game console, smartphone, and digital audio player can connect to the Internet when within range of a wireless network connected to the Internet. A single access point (or hotspot) has a range of about 20 meters indoors. Wi-Fi has a greater range outdoors and multiple overlapping access points can cover large areas.
"Wi-Fi" is a trademark of the Wi-Fi Alliance and the term was originally created as a simpler name for the "IEEE 802.11" standard. Wi-Fi is used by over 700 million people, there are over 4 million hotspots (places with Wi-Fi Internet connectivity) around the world, and about 800 million new Wi-Fi devices every year. Wi-Fi products that complete the Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability certification testing successfully can use the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED designation and trademark.
WHICH ONE?
In my opinion i would get WIFI because it is easier and cheaper and very convenient.
