Bit

Living in every piece of intelligent electronics that has a computer chip of some sort, is Bit. He is one of many and loves to explore the digital world. In the end, everything in the computer world revolves around Bit. But here, in Computer Adventures, Bit will gladly be your guide into the world of computers. This particular one loves exploring the different computers that existed in our world and teaching you all about it.

Function

Bit is a very simple and enthusiastic little guy. He is either 0 or 1, true or false, yes or no. In computers, he is always the former. Even with just two states, Bit can control everything in computers, especially when he is together with his friends. The more Bits there are, the more complex calculations a computer can do or the more data it can store. When Bit has gathered 7 more friends, they turn into his big brother Byte and venture off to do even more complex and awesome things.   But what makes multiple Bits so powerful? He can only be 0 and 1, surely not much changes when there are multiple of him? The strength is in the combinations you can make with multiple bits. Here, have a look at this table:  
Number of BitsDifferent Patterns
10 1
200 01 10 11
3000 001 010 011
100 101 110 111
With every Bit you add, you get twice as many available patterns and that adds up very quickly. The more combinations there are to make, the more complex it becomes. Fortunately for us, we usually don't see Bit in action in his raw form. Imagine that, having to read everything with a string of ones and zeroes.. we'd go crazy in seconds.

There are 10 types of people in the world: those who understand, and those who don't.

With 8 Bits like me, I can take on 256 different patterns. Isn't that cool?

He's soooo cute! I absolutely love the way you have his quote as 1's and 0's with the mouseover translation :D


You are doing a great job! Keep creating; I believe in you!

Thank youu! <3 I'm so glad you like the translation ^^ I was wondering if it wasn't too much ^,^" But as long as the messages are short, I could use this trick in other articles too.. ^^

This is so great, both for adults and children. Bit is wonderfully accessable and dynamic, without coming across as patronizing for people who 'already know.' Well written and adorable.

Thank you so much! <3 Your words mean a lot to me, because that is exactly what I'm hoping to achieve with Bit and I'm so glad to see that it is coming across as I intended. ^^

Love this idea! Excited to see what you will add in the future and an absolutely amazing design for this new world!

Thank youu! <3 I have soooo many plans, but I'll get there. And I'm so glad you like the design! It took me many hours of crying hard work. ^^

I love the idea and am super excited to see what shenanigans and adventures will unveil!   The abundance of possibilities! Shifts, memories, languages, protocols. Aaaaaa! XD

Yess, there are so. many. things!! I'd love to cover with Bit and the others. And it's double the fun, because I get to learn about them all too! I just hope I can deliver it all in such a way that many people can understand the core concepts, that'll be the biggest challenge of this whole project. ^^

I love this little guy! Computer science punny humor makes my programmer's heart smile. Thank you for sharing!

Thank youu! <3 I'm so glad I have a space to unleash all my computer science puns. ^^
