In computers, a bit is a single 1 or 0. It's a contraction of "Binary Digit". In money, historically a bit was an eighth of a gold dollar. One way of making change was to cut the gold dollar up into eight wedges, each then worth 12.5 cents. That's why a quarter is called "two bits".

How do you calculate bit strings?
To calculate the decimal value of a bit string: Number the bits from right to left 0 - n. Starting with a decimal value of 0, add 2^(Number of that digit) for each 1 you see in your bit string. The sum is the decimal equivalent to the binary number.
What is the largest value you can represent using a 256 bit signed integer?

What is the difference between bit signal and dirty bit?
bit signal - original intended bit value that was sentdirty bit - corrupted incorrect bit value modified by noise eventsThe dirty bit may or may not match the bit signal originally sent, it may have been modified more than once by different noise events.

How many '1's are there in a 16 bit binary sequence?
In a 16 bit number there must be from zero to 16 '1'. If a bit does not have value zero then it has a value of 1. Nothing else can be represented by a bit. Example 0000 is a 4 bit number. Each bit is a zero. 1010 is also a four bit number. 0000111100001111 is a 16 bit number. 1100110011000001 is also a 16 bit number.
