Course Introduction:
	Syllabus and Calendar
	Course Website
	Isoptera
	No lab for the first week

Binary:
	Computers use O and 1
	From this base, higher numbers must be stored
	Binary examples (on board)
	Binary is lengthy!  Hexdecimal is preferred most of the time
	Hex examples, on board
	Octal is used sometimes (mostly for file permissions)
	A number isn't really "in decimal" or "in hex", it's stored in binary
		These are ways of displaying a quantity
		Storage here is a physical property of something ("what" varies)
	
Storing Complicated Information:
	Pictures
		RGB
		Bitmap Images
		Compression
	Video
		Compression
	Audio
		Diagram of speaker system (on board)
		Audio encodes driver position (.wav)
		Records
			Spiral, not like CD
			Old records record driver position 
		Sample Rate
		Compression and fourier transform
	Computer programs
		Text, ASCII, Unicode
	Machine instructions
		Numbers to indicate instruction and parameters

Since all of this is in numbers now, signals can be transmitted from one place to another
	Clocks, clock signal, etc.
	Hertz
