When playing a video = x frames per seconds, a composition of switches that represent colors display an image. → A sequence of 0s and 1s. The same concept applies to other formats of output audio and other ways to represent binary. In order to save space, compression is used → lossy and lossless (as well as ZIP files)

  • Lossy = some info lost, lossless = no info lost (just records patterns)
  • An algorithm = step by step instructions
  • An algorithm is when a computer takes an element of a variable or other piece of information, manipulating this information to follow a set of instructions.
  • Pseudocode = An outline of how a problem given should be solved. (crashes and loading screens are sometimes attributed to unaccounted possibilities)
  • Functions: Actions/verbs that solve smaller problems
  • Conditionals: Based off of some qualities, specific functions must be executed.
  • Boolean expressions: True/False
  • Loops: A sequence of code that
