Combinations of Bits Using the Boxes

Combinations of bits using the boxes (Image-1)

Binary combinations: 0000, 0001, 0010, 0011, 0100, 0101, 0110, 0111, 1000, 1001, 1010, 1011, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111 = 16 combinations

This could be expressed in decimal value as 24 which is 16

2 represents the fact that there are two possible states: 0 and 1
4 represents the fact that [...]

The Four-Bit Combination

(Image-1) Nibble

Nibble

Is represented by a group of 4 bits = 1/2 byte
This is also a system that the computer uses to count bits internally

The first bit, on the right side of the nibble

Is called the Low Order bit or LO bit
This is also called the least significant bit
The bit on the right side is counted [...]

A Bit

The computer (or an Intel computer, or a computer that runs on an Intel microprocessor)  

(B-1) Uses the binary system to represent its information

Example of (B-1)

A piece of information in the computer is called a datum
(B-2) The plural is data

Example of (B-2)

Sometimes, the word data is used for both singular and plural

The computer represents data
