Across
- 2. The number of bits available to store an audio sample.
- 3. The smallest unit of data in computing represented by a 1 in binary.
- 5. A number system that contains two symbols, 0 and 1. Also known as base 2.
- 7. Continuous data which can have a range of values.
- 8. A digitally recorded fragment of sound, taken from an existing track or sound environment.
- 9. The unit of frequency, symbol 'Hz'. 1 Hz is 1 wave or cycle per second.
Down
- 1. Information stored as discrete values usually represented as numbers. This contrasts with analogue data, which is represented by continuous data, usually in waves.
- 4. How many samples of data are taken per second. This is normally measured in hertz, e.g. an audio file usually uses samples of 44.1 kHz (44,100 audio samples per second).
- 5. In computing, the number of bits processed per second.
- 6. Units of information. In computing there can be different data types, including integers, characters, and Boolean. Data is often acted on by instructions.
