Encoding Schemes and Number Systems NCERT Exercise Solutions

Summary

  • Encoding scheme maps text into the codes that facilitate communication among computers.
  • Textual data is encoded using ASCII, ISCII or Unicode.
  • Unicode scheme is a character encoding standard which can encode all the characters of almost all languages of the world.
  • Computer being a digital system understands only binary numbers which are 0 and 1.
  • Encoded text is converted to binary form for processing by the computer.
  • Octal and hexadecimal number systems are used to simplify the binary coded representation as they allow grouping of 3 or 4 bits of binary numbers each, respectively.
