In order to visualize and conceptualize this information, we should form an understanding of the binary system.]]> 2021-05-16 17:08:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528735036 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528748376 The binary number system, also called the base-2 number system, is a method of representing number by using combinations of only two numerals: zero (0) and one (1).
Computers use the binary number system to manipulate and store all of their data including numbers, words, videos, graphics, and music.]]> 2021-05-16 17:18:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528748376 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528756249 In 1854, British mathematician George Boole published a landmark paper detailing an algebraic system of logic that would become known as Boolean algebra.
His logical calculus was to become instrumental in the design of digital electronic circuitry]]> 2021-05-16 17:23:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528756249 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528759344 In November 1937, George Stibitz, at the time working at Bell Labs, completed a relay-based computer he dubbed the "Model K" (for Kitchen where he had assembled it), which calculated using binary addition. Bell Labs thus authorized a full research program in late 1938 with Stibitz.]]> 2021-05-16 17:26:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528759344 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528763146 Their Complex Number Computer, completed by January 8, 1940, was able to calculate complex numbers. In a demonstration to the American Mathematical Society conference at Dartmouth College on September 11, 1940, Stibitz was able to send the Complex Number Calculator remote commands over telephone lines by a teletype. It was the first computing machine ever used remotely over a phone line.]]> 2021-05-16 17:28:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528763146 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528767194 Model K was the first Relay Based Computer to use Binary Number (1937)]]> 2021-05-16 17:31:30 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528767194 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528769173 The binary numeral system, or base-2 number system, represents numeric values using two symbols (numbers), usually 0 and 1. More specifically, the usual base-2 system is a positional notation with a radix of 2.
Owing to its straightforward implementation in digital electronic circuitry using logic gates, the binary system is used internally by all modern computers.]]> 2021-05-16 17:32:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528769173 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528773930 Normally we count from left to right.
1..2..3..4..etc
In Binary we count in opposite direction.
8..4..2..1..etc
This is an important feature once converting numbers.]]> 2021-05-16 17:36:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528773930 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528776614 Binary Language is the building block of all data.
In order to understand storage capacity and sizes, it is important to know how data is read and saved.
The data is fragile, each digit is needed to be whole.]]> 2021-05-16 17:37:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528776614 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528778554 When you save a word document, the computer will sequence the data in binary form. Each string of digits represent a certain value such as a letter, space, underlined, etc..
Each program has a certain way that it reads and writes data, all of it is written in Binary.]]> 2021-05-16 17:39:04 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528778554 sarahmenhal https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528781646 2021-05-16 17:41:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahmenhal/f5x2ubp0jtkgju2f/wish/1528781646
