Binary and Data Representation*Explain the following theory topics that have been taught in class – use your own words:

1.What really is a Computer (explain the concept of a chip and transistors)2.What is Binary?3.Use a table and images to explain how numbers can be represented in Binary4.Who was Charles Babbage?5.What is ASCII? (Hint: Linked to the representation of Text)Extension: What is the Largest number that can be represented in a computer – explain why!

*Use as many extra slides as you need and acknowledge any sources (websites) you have used. You mustanswer the questions in your own words.


1. What really is a Computer (explain the concept of a chip and transistors)*Where appropriate, use Animations and Images to illustrate your points


2. What is Binary? Explain the history and what it is in your own words.*Where appropriate, use Animations and Images to illustrate your points


3. Use a table and any other visual aid (animations, if possible) to explain how Numbers are represented using Binary.*Where appropriate, use Animations and Images to illustrate your points


4. Charles Babbage – who was he and what did he do for Computer Science?

*Where appropriate, use Animations and Images to illustrate your points


5. What is ASCII? Explain Character Representation in your own words.

Extension: Also look up UNICODE AND EBDIC. Why was it necessary to introduce these two in addition?


EXT: What is the largest number a computer can represent?

*Explain the concept of representing the largest number in a Computer in your own words. Research PI () and to whatExtent the number has been able to be represented in a computer.
