Tidy Up!

UNICODE - 16 bit, capable of storing more characters allows it to store more languages



Advantages and Disadvantages of Binary


+ Easier to store the two states on backing storage
- its harder to write programs in Binary (longer, difficult to spot mistakes)
+ not affected by voltage degredation
+ fewer rules of addition to code into the processor (0 + 0, 0 + 1, 1 + 0, 1 + 1)
