Information representation in computers relies on binary encoding, where data is stored as sequences of 0s and 1s (bits). Various data types, such as integers, floating-point numbers, characters (using ASCII or Unicode), and strings, provide foundational structures for data manipulation. Encoding schemes, particularly ASCII and Unicode, convert information into a processable form. Data compression techniques, both lossless and lossy, reduce data size for storage and transmission, while different file formats ensure optimized handling of specific data types like text, images, and audio.
