Across
  1. 1. a type of character encoding in which codes of different lengths are used to encode a character set
  2. 6. matching or corresponding a function to an element in a list
  3. 7. An independent section of code that accomplishes a task and can be called in by the main or larger body of code.
  4. 8. an order sequence of zero and one bits
  5. 10. electronic technology that generates, stores and processes data in terms of positive and nonpositive states
  6. 11. characters that include the 26 letter alphabet, numerical digits from 0-9, and sometimes special characters like @,#, and *
  7. 12. Having only two possible values.
  8. 14. An encoding scheme, where each character is given a binary code with the same number of bits
  9. 16. the process of removing elements of a code or program that aren't relevant or that distract from more important elements in order to reduce complexity and increase efficiency
  10. 18. the set of all possible states/configurations of a system
  11. 20. The smallest unit of data that a computer can process and store. Each one is represented in two states, such as 0 and 1.
  12. 23. information that has been translated into a form that is efficient for movement or processing
  13. 28. When individual pixels in an image appear brighter or darker than they should, due to interference in electronic circuits
  14. 29. data of a continuous nature
  15. 30. the process of converting data or a sequence of characters using a specific format for efficient transmission or storage
  16. 32. a system with a countable number of states
  17. 33. a clause used to combine rows from two or more tables based on a related column between them
Down
  1. 2. a value used to access a specific element in an array or a collection of data
  2. 3. a format for organizing, processing, retrieving, and storing data.
  3. 4. the result or any information that a program produces, it is what comes out of a function
  4. 5. A method used to encode text characters based on sequences of two different signal durations, which are dots and dashes.
  5. 9. is an abstract data type that represents a finite number of ordered values, where the same value may occur more than once.
  6. 13. An uninterrupted sequence in the extension of space, time, and sequence
  7. 15. a contiguous sequence of characters within a string
  8. 17. the most common character encoding formula in which standard numerical values are assigned to characters used in computers.
  9. 19. The linking or joining of two strings into a single larger string.
  10. 21. a function/process that increases in capability/quantity at a constant rate over time.
  11. 22. The fundamental form of the programming data that is directly interpreted by a computer. The code is composed of a string of 0s and 1s, and uses a two value system.
  12. 24. using a simpler process to get a solution that is sufficient but not the most optimal
  13. 25. An algorithm that iterates through each item in a list until it finds the target value.
  14. 26. a universal character encoding standard in which a unique number is provided for every character across languages and scripts
  15. 27. It is a binary code that uses crosses and dots, originally used for teleprinter messages.
  16. 31. A data type that is used to represent various connected characters.
