Positive is expressed or represented by the number 1 and non-positive by the number 0. Thus, data transmitted or stored with digital technology is expressed as a string of 0’s and l’s. Each of these state digits is referred to as a bit and a string of bits that a computer can address individually as a group is a byte.[1]
