DATA CONVERSION
Data conversion is the conversion of computer data from one format to

another.
Data Representation – Recognize only two discrete states: on or off, Use

binary system to recognize two states, Use number system with two
unique digits: 0 and 1, called bits (short of binary digits).
Binary - is a number expressed in the binary numeral system, or base-2

numeral system, which represents numeric values using two
different symbols: typically 0 (zero) and 1 (one).
Decimal - (also called base ten or occasionally denary) has ten as its base. It
is the numerical base most widely used by modern civilizations.
Decimal notation often refers to a base-10 positional notation such
as the Hindu-Arabic numeral system; however, it can also be used
more generally to refer to non-positional systems such as Roman or
Chinese numerals which are also based on powers of ten.
Hexadecimal - (also base 16, or hex) is a positional numeral system with a
radix, or base-16. It uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the
symbols 0–9 to represent values zero to nine, and A, B, C, D, E, F (or
alternatively a–f) to represent values ten to fifteen.
Octal - Oct for short, is the base-8 number system, and uses the digits 0 to 7.
Octal numerals can be made from binary numerals by grouping
consecutive binary digits into groups of three (starting from the
right).
Three popular coding systems to represent data.
1. ASCII – American Standard Code for Information Interchange

2. EBCDIC – Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code
3. Unicode – Coding scheme capable of representing all world’s languages.
