→Why Study Data Representation?
''Data (treated as singular, plural, or as a mass noun) is any sequence of one or more symbols given meaning by specific act(s) of interpretation.
Digital data is data that is represented using the binary number system of ones (1) and zeros (0), as opposed to analog representation.''<br>
Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_(computing)<br><br>
Therefore, computers process and store information in a binary number system consisting of 0s and 1s.
