A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Number systems and base conversion

This topic covers how numbers are represented in different bases, especially decimal, binary, octal and hexadecimal, and how to convert between them. It matters in digital electronics because computers and digital circuits store and process data in binary, while octal and hexadecimal provide compact human-friendly forms of the same values.
