GCSE AQA Computer Science - Data Representation
  1. Images
    1. Bitmap images are made up of picture elements, or pixels
      1. A pixel is a single point in a graphical image
        1. Resolution - concentration of pixels in a certain area
          1. Colour depth - how many colours can be represented in a single pixel
            1. File size = total pixels x colour depth
              1. Higher resolution / colour depth = higher quality & higher file size
              2. Sound
                1. Microphones record analogue and convert to digital
                  1. Speakers convert from digital to analogue
                    1. Sample resolution - the amplitude used to record each sample / measurement
                      1. Sample rate - number of samples taken a second
                        1. File size = sample rate x resolution x time
                        2. Compression
                          1. Lossy
                            1. JPG, GIF, MP3
                              1. Permanently removes some data
                                1. Uncompressed data is not the same as the original
                                2. Lossless
                                  1. PNG, TIFF
                                    1. Uncompressed data is same as the original
                                      1. File quality is not lost
                                        1. Run length encoding
                                          1. Huffman tree
                                            1. Analyses the frequency of characters in a body of text
                                              1. Characters are placed in a binary tree structure
                                                1. Most common characters appear near the top of the tree
                                            2. Number systems
