Suppose a picture is represented on a display screen by a rectangular array containing 1024 columns and 768 rows of pixels. If for each pixel, 8 bits are required to encode the color and another 8 bits to encode the intensity, how many byte-size memory cells are required to hold the entire picture?

- 2. The computer in mars has a fivenary memory - that is each location can hold a frit value, with a frit holding 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4. How many frits are needed to hold a 6-octal_bit number. Give an expression for the number of frits to hold n octal bits.arrow_forward# python Suppose we have a dataset with 1000 images, each image has resolution 1080 by 1920 pixels, and it's represented as an array of numbers in [0, 255] in our program. How much memory (in megabytes) colored RGB images will occupy? (we can use 8bits per pixel to encode intensity)arrow_forwardA video frame displayed onscreen consists of many pixels, with eachpixel, or cell, representing one unit of video output. A videodisplay’s resolution is typically specified in horizontal and verticalpixels (such as 1920 3 1080), and the number of pixels onscreen issimply the product of these numbers (1920 3 1080 5 2,073,600 pixels).A pixel’s data content is one or more unsigned integers. For ablack-and-white display, each pixel is a single number (usuallybetween 0 and 255) representing the intensity of the color white.Color pixel data is typically represented as one or three unsignedintegers.When three numbers are used, the numbers are usually between 0 and255, and each number represents the inten- sity of a primary color(red, green, or blue). When a single number is used, it represents apredefined color selected from a table (palette) of colors.Motion video is displayed onscreen by copying frames rapidly to thevideo display controller. Because video images or frames require manybytes…arrow_forward
- Please write this in Python: // Step 1: Create an empty array of size 26 to store the frequencies // Step 2: For each character in the input string, convert it to its corresponding index in the array. // Step 3: Add 1 to the frequency at the corresponding index // Step 4: Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all characters in the input string have been processed // Step 5: Return the array of frequenciesarrow_forwardA computer with a 32-bit word uses an instruction format that includes direct and indirect addressing of 8 megabytes and one of 16 registers. The highest order bits are used for the opcode, followed by the bits indicating the register, followed by the indirect/direct bit, followed by the bits indicating the memory address. Draw the instruction word's format, showing how many bits are used for all four fields (Make sure to show here how many bits for each and the order in which they appear. You can submit a drawing of the word's format separatelyarrow_forwardIn a microcomputer, the addresses of memory locations are binary numbers that identify each memory circuit where a byte is stored. The number of bits that make up an address depends on how many memory locations there are. Since the number of bits can be very large, the addresses are often specified in hex instead of binary. If a microcomputer uses a 24-bit address, how many different memory locations are there? What is the largest number that can be How many hex digits are needed to represent the address of a memory location? What is the hex address of the 172th memory location? (Note: The first address is always ) The computer program is stored in the lowest 3 kbyte block of memory. Give the start and end address of this What is the BCD code of the hex address of the 172th memory location?arrow_forward
- A computer has 64 MB (megabytes) of memory. Each word is 4 bytes. How many bits are needed to address each single word in memory? 2. How many bytes of memory are needed to store a full screen of data if the screen is made of 24 lines with 80 characters in each line? The system uses ASCII code, with each ASCII character stored as a byte.arrow_forwardAn alternative to hexadecimal notation for representing bit patterns is dotted decimal notation in which each byte in the pattern is represented by its base ten equivalent. In turn, these byte representations are separated by periods. For example, 12.5 represents the pattern 0000110000000101 (the byte 00001100 is represented by 12, and 00000101 is represented by 5), and the pattern 100010000001000000000111 is represented by 136.16.7. Represent each of the following bit patterns in dotted decimal notation. 0000111100001111 001100110000000010000000 0000101010100000arrow_forwardSuppose r0 = ox300010A0, r2 = 0x00000011, and the memory layout is as follows Address: Data: 0x300010A7 0x72 0x300010A6 0XA5 0x300010A5 0x9F 0x300010A4 0x00 0x300010A3 0x50 0x300010A2 0x2B 0x300010A1 0XA5 0x300010A0 0x01 -What are the values of r0 and r1 after executing the following code?
