Binary

  1. Binary is a base 2 number system.
  2. 0 represents off and 1 represents on.
  3. A bit is the minimum unit of binary information stored in a computer system.

Boolean Expressions

  1. A boolean statement is a logical statement that is either TRUE or FALSE and compares data.

Truth Tables

  1. The logical operations shown in truth tables are AND, OR , NOT, and NOR.
# AND
5 > 3 and 5 == 3 + 2
True
5 < 3 and 5 == 5
False
5 == 5 or 5 != 5
True
5 < 3 or 5 != 5
False

Real Life Example using Boolean Expressions

Try changing the conditions and/or the logical operation below! Run the code to see if you are eligible to vote.

security_card = 2
badge = True

if security_card == 2 and badge:
    print("You have a high enough security clearance.")
else:
    print("You are not allowed in this room.")
You have a high enough security clearance.

Binary Conversions

Binary to Decimal

  1. We can count in binary by using powers of 2.
  2. In binary, we read from right to left.
  3. 0111 has a value of 1+2+4 = 7.
  1. For a binary search, the list must be sorted in ascending or descending order.
  2. In a binary search, computers start at the middle.
  3. The number of steps required in a binary search follows the equation: log2(n), where n is the number of elements in the list.
  4. Binary searches also work with a list of strings. We can sort them alphabetically.
  5. Binary searches can be represented in flow diagrams or pseudocode.

Binary Search Questions

  1. Make a binary search tree of different the list [1,2,4,15,25,30,31]

            15
         /      \
        2       30
      /   \     /   \
     1     4   25   31
  2. Put this list of strings in a order that can be used for binary search ["Donut”,"Cake”,"Soda”,"Banana”,"Fruit”]

Banana, Cake, Donut, Fruit, Soda

  1. Explain why Binary Search is more efficient than Sequential Search.

Binary search is more efficient than sequential search because it eliminates half of the remaining items with each iteration, making the search time grow logarithmically with the number of items. In contrast, sequential search requires iterating through every item in the list until the target item is found, which makes the search time grow linearly with the number of items. As a result, binary search is much faster for large lists of items.

Extra Credit:

  • Translate the binary number, 1001010, into octal (base 8).

1 0 0 1 0 1 0 64 8 2 = 74

1 1 2 64 8 2 = 74

Answer : 112 in octal base
