jell_o SG okie erm..i know lots of ppl are having their exams rite now but i just got this qns that i dunno how to do: how many bits does one need to encode any position in a string of 200,000 symbols? pls pls pls help k? Thanks!!!
Xcert SG I try only...dunno correct or not. 200,000 symbols means 200,000 in decimal. to convert 200,000 base 10 into base 2. 200000 = 30D40H = 5 x 4 binary digits. answer 20 bits?
