Digital Data and Image Storage Fundamentals

Flashcards covering bits, bytes, data units, floating-point formats, and image size calculations.

Byte (bits)

A unit of digital information containing $8$ bits.

Byte (value representation)

The capacity of a single byte to represent $256$ values, specifically ranging from $0$ to $255$.

1 KB

A unit of storage containing $1,024$ bytes rather than $1,000$.

float32

A decimal number format stored using $32$ bits ($4$ bytes).

Uncompressed RGB Image ($100 \times 100$ pixels)

An image whose size is calculated as $100 \times 100 \times 3 = 30,000$ bytes, based on $3$ bytes per pixel (Red, Green, Blue).
