Inside the computer, each character (such as the letter <i>A</i> the letter <i>g,</i> or a question mark) is usually represented by a byte. Four bits, or half of a byte, is called a <i>nibble</i> or <i>nybble</i>a name that was originally proposed with tongue in cheek but is now standard terminology. Groups of 16, 32, and 64 bits are generally referred to as <i>words</i> (although the terms <i>short word</i> and <i>long word</i> are sometimes used to refer to 16-bit and 64-bit groups, respectively).</font></td><td></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" height="1"></td></tr></table></td></tr><tr><td valign="top"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td rowspan="5"></td> <td colspan="3" height="12"></td> <td rowspan="5"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr><tr><td></td> <td><font face="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" size="3">The process of assigning bit patterns to pieces of data is called <i>coding</i>the same name we give to the process of translating an algorithm into a programming language.

Even on the same computer, different programming languages can use different binary representations for the same data. A single programming language may even use the same pattern of bits to represent different things in different contexts. (People do this too. The four letters that represent the word <i>tack</i> have different meanings depending on whether you are talking about upholstery, sailing, sewing, paint, or horseback riding.) The point is that patterns of bits by themselves are meaningless. It is the way in which the patterns are used that gives them their meaning.</font></td><td></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" height="1"></td></tr></table></td></tr><tr><td valign="top"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td rowspan="5"></td> <td colspan="3" height="12"></td> <td rowspan="5"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr><tr><td></td> <td><font face="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" size="3">Fortunately, we no longer have to work with binary coding schemes.
