Computer Data Storage and Binary

Image
A computer turns analog inputs into data and converts it into a code of zeros and ones so the computer can read the data.  A bit is a small electrical device that can be either 1 or zero and it is a micro transistors that holds a electrical charge. 8 bits are 1 byte. For every bit they are either a 1 or on or a zero which is off which means a number in the number system and it is 2 squared for every 1. Learning the way to turn bits from 1 and 0 to numbers is very difficult

Analog vs. Digital Data and the Python int command

The int command allows numbers to be round down to the next denominator. Analog uses waves of electricity to be able to work and record or hold data and digital uses binary information to record or use data that can effect the code. a modem allows regulation for the internet and makes sure that the internet is up and running and able to transfer data from the internet in zeros and ones. Learning all the new info was quite hard since their is a lot to remember.

Python input command and variables

The new python command I learned to use was the input command. The input command allows us to be able to store information to be used later and can be assigned a name that will be used later in the command. It can also be used as ways to get variables to certain questions and can be used to record the data of the answers. the difficulties I faced were the naming of the programs since they cant be separated and can't have certain symbols. I think that learning how to use the input command was fun and was very entertaining.
