CNIT 17600 - Intro Computer Architecture - Data Format Lab 1 Data Format Lab When we have a human task, such as communicating remotely, that we wish to implement in a computer system, we need to have a system for moving something from meat space into cyber space. We encode characters into different formats which are discussed in lecture. These formats include ASCII, Unicode, and EBCDIC. These encodings encode characters that are used in human language and we are able to type them when we use a piece of hardware like a keyboard or when we swipe on a touch screen. Though Planet Earth has used codes like ASCII, Unicode, and EBCIDIC, but those are not the only possible codes. The Taronites from the planet Oolong use a language called Bobatea, with a rather strange encoding system, at least from the perspective of those on Planet Earth. Earthlings have been intercepting Taronite messages - including one that was like the Rosetta Stone of old - and have determined that there are thirteen characters in the Taronite alphabet, and that each character uses a 5-bit code. In addition, there are four numeric digits. Photos of the Taronites show that they have
