STORING DIGITAL DATA


with Ms Denalda
What is Computer
System?

A computer system is a set of


integrated devices that input, output,
process, and store data and
information.
COMPUTER SYSTEM

** Many electronic devices use computer system inside.

Examples:
Robots, smart phones, tablet, laptops etc.
INSIDE COMPUTER SYSTEM

STORING THE DATA

Digital data Data stored using digits ( 0 and 1 )

Examples of data:
-numbers
-text, images, sounds
Binary number system ==> Digits of 0 and 1

What is
binary number??
What is
binary number??

Only has two (2) numbers:

“0 and 1“
Number System

0 - 9,
0, 1
0-9 A-F

Binary Hexadecimal
Decimal
Examples
Binary: 10011101 base-2

Decimal: 20 base-10, 54 base-10

Hexadecimal: A9 base-16, 7E base-16


Binary number
0, 1
1. = Represent 'On' & 'Off' in electronic device
= Represent data of a file in computer

Bits and Bytes

2.
Unit: Bit = each digit in binary number
Byte = 8-bit numbers
*The unit of the size of a digital file in computer
Binary number
Bits and Bytes

1. Example:
Byte: 10011010 (8-bit numbers)

Place Value of Binary number

2. Each digit has their own ‘place value’


Start from the most right digit
Binary number
Place Value of Binary number

1. Each digit has their own ‘place value’


Start from the most right digit

Place Value of Binary number

2. *Place value starts from one (1):

1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
STORING DATA
INSIDE COMPUTER

From the input, data will


go into the computer.
How does it stored?
Exercise
1. Write down two digits used in binary number
system
2. Write down eight extra digits used in decimal
number system that are not used in binary
3. Explain what digital data is
4. List down 3 things a computer stores as binary
number
Exercise
1. What is a bit?
2. What is a byte?
3. Give another name of binary
4. From this binary number: 1001011.
What is the value of the 1 in column 4?
Short test
1. What is another name of base-10?

2. Write down the place value of each of the binary digits:


10111010010

3. Explain why the digits in the 2nd column and the 5th column of the
above binary number have different value.
Unit 1.3
Adding in Binary

Rule 1 Rule 3

Rule 2 Rule 4
Examples:

a) 1110 + 1101 =

b) 111001 + 10111 =

c) 10110 + 110 =
1.4 Decimal to Binary
a) Conversion from Binary to Decimal

Write the place value:

1 1 0 0 1 0

32 16 8 4 2 1
1.4 Decimal to Binary
a) Conversion from Binary to Decimal

Multiply the binary number with its place value:

1 1 0 0 1 0

32 16 8 4 2 1
1.4 Decimal to Binary
a) Conversion from Binary to Decimal

Add altogether the result of the multiplication:

1 1 0 0 1 0

32 16 8 4 2 1

32 16 0 0 2 0
1.4 Decimal to Binary
a) Conversion from Binary to Decimal

Add altogether the result of the multiplication:

1 1 0 0 1 0

32 16 8 4 2 1

32 16 0 0 2 0

Answer = 5010 (Decimal)
