IGCSE CS Data Representation Challenge

Welcome, aspiring digital architect! You're tasked with designing efficient data storage for a new multimedia application. This involves understanding how numbers, text, images, and sound are represented in binary. This quiz will test your skills in converting between number systems and calculating data sizes.

This quiz explores Data Representation, a fundamental area of the Cambridge IGCSE Computer Science (0478/0984) syllabus, primarily relevant to Paper 1. We will cover concepts from syllabus points 1.1.1 (Number systems: denary, binary, hexadecimal), 1.1.2 (Conversion between number systems), 1.2.2 (Image representation: pixels, resolution, colour depth), and 1.2.3 (Sound representation: sampling, sample rate, bit depth). Mastering these is key to understanding how computers process and store all forms of digital information.
