===Why Study Data Representation?=== Computers process and store information in '''binary''' formatFor many aspects of programming and networking, the details of data representation must be understood C Programming – sending information over networks, files Unix / Linux – setting permissions for files and directories Web Pages – setting color codes In terms of this course, we will learn how a simple decimal number (integer) is stored into the computer system as a binary number. We will also learn other numbering systems (octal and hexadecimal) that can be used as a "short-cut" to represent binary numbers.
