Bit - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a contraction of "Binary Digit"; the single unit of
information in a computer, typically represented as a 0 or 1
Byte - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔8 bits
Binary - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a way of representing information using only two
options
Binary Number System - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a system for representing numbers
using combinations of the digits 0 and 1
Decimal Number System - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a system for representing
numbers using combinations of the digits 0 - 9
,Overflow Error - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔an incorrect value from attempting to
represent a number that is too large
Round-off Error - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔an incorrect value from attempting to
represent a number that is too precise
Digital Data - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔data that changes discreetly through a finite
set of possible values
Analog Data - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔data with values that change continuously, or
smoothly, over time, for example, music and colors of a painting
Sampling - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a process for creating a digital representation of
analog data by measuring the analog data at regular intervals
Pixel - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔the fundamental unit of a digital image, typically a
tiny square or dot which contains a single point of color of a larger image
Resolution - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔the dimensions by which you can measure how
many pixels are on a screen
RGB - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔the RGB color model that uses varying intensities of
(R)ed, (G)reen, and (B)lue light added together to reproduce a broad array
of colors
, Data Compression - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a process for reducing the number of
bits needed to represent a piece of information
Lossless Compression - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a process for reducing the number
of bits needed to represent something without losing any information; this
process is reversible
Lossy Compression - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a process for reducing the number of
bits needed to represent something in which some information is lost
Intellectual Property - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a work or invention that is the result of
creativity, such as a piece of writing or a design, to which one has rights
Creative Commons - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔A collection of public copyright
licenses that enable the free distribution of an otherwise copyrighted work.
It allows artists to declare how they want their creations to be shared and
used
Open Access - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔content free of any and all restrictions on
access and free of many restrictions on use
Open Source - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔programs that are made freely available and
may be redistributed and modified
