1. What is a Natural Number
Positive Integer
and its Symbol?
2. What is a Real Number and
(N) Any number
its Symbol?
3. What is an Integer and its
Symbol? (R)
4. What is a Rational Number
and its Symbol? Any whole number (Z)
Can be represented in a Fraction (Q)
5. What is a Ordinal Number? Position in a list
6. What is a Cardinal Number? Size of list
7. What is Absolute Error? Difference between actual answer and
esti-
mate
8. What is Relative Error? absolute error/true value
9. How does parity bit Bit (1/0) is added at end of code.
work? (Odd/Even) Even parity - If there is an even
number of 1's, 0 is added
Odd parity - If there is an even number
of 1's, 1 is added
10. What is Majority Voting? 3 bits are sent that are the same as the
origi-
nal bit, the majority amount received
is taken as the original bit. 101 = 1.
Good as corrects errors as well as
spotting them.

Amount of bits used to represent
all the colours of an image.
17 colours requires 5 bits.
13. What is Metadata? Data about an image/ other data.
-Time, Bit depth, Size
14. What is Analogue data? It is infinite and represented in wave
form
15. What is Digital data? Represented in binary, finite and can be
processed by a computer
16. Why are ADC's used? A computer needs to process analogue
signal
so data needs to be converted from
Analogue to Digital.
17. What is Nyquist's theorem? Sound should be sampled at double the
high-
est frequency.
18. What is Sampling? The process of converting Analogue
signals to Digital.
-Specific readings of amplitude
(Samples) are taken at regular intervals
and converted and stored in binary.
19. What happens when - Increase in file size
sample rate increases? - Increase in quality
20. What is Encryption? Converting Plaintext to Ciphertext to
make it
useless for anyone who intercepts it.
21. What is a Caeser Cipher? Moving the alphabet up and down or
replacing
letters with other letters.

both en-
cryption and decryption. XOR gate is
used.
23. What does a Vernam key - Randomly generated
have to be? - Same length as plaintext
