 8 bits is also know as a ___________

• Byte

• Analog Data

• Decimal

• Digital Data

Error from attempting to represent a number that is too large.

• Overflow Error

• Round-off Error

• Sampling

• Lossless Compression

Error from attempting to represent a number that is too precise. The value is rounded.

• Round-Off Error

• Overflow Error

• Lossless Compression

• Lossy Compression

Data with values that change continuously, or smoothly, over time. Some examples of analog data include music, colors of a painting, or position of a sprinter during a race.

• Analog Data

• Digital Data

• Sampling

• Overflow Error

• Data that changes discretely through a finite set of possible values

• Digital Data

• Analog Data

• Lossless Compression

• Byte

A process for creating a digital representation of analog data by measuring the analog data at regular intervals called sample

• Sampling

• Lossless Compression

• Lossy Compression

• Binary

A process for reducing the number of bits needed to represent something without losing any information. This process is reversible.
