COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS

Detailed explanation-1: -Computers store data in binary form as it is the language that is understood by the computer. The processor converts the commands and information given by the user into binary data for the computer to execute them. Binary data is numerically represented by 0s and 1s.

Detailed explanation-2: -In mathematics and in computing systems, a binary digit, or bit, is the smallest unit of data. Each bit has a single value of either 1 or 0, which means it can’t take on any other value. Computers can represent numbers using binary code in the form of digital 1s and 0s inside the central processing unit (CPU) and RAM.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct answer is the Binary number system. The computer system can store any kind of data in the form of 0’s and 1’s which is known as the Binary number system.

Detailed explanation-4: -Data (information) is stored in a computer as files.

Detailed explanation-5: -Binary data is primarily stored on the hard disk drive (HDD). The device is made up of a spinning disk (or disks) with magnetic coatings and heads that can both read and write information in the form of magnetic patterns. In addition to hard disk drives, floppy disks and tapes also store data magnetically.
