- B.So that all bit patterns become graphics
- C.So that sound no longer needs to be represented
- D.So that the number of bits is always reduced to one
Model answer
What a good answer should say
- So that the bit pattern can be interpreted as sound data
Explanation
Why this works
Bits alone do not state what form of data they represent. An agreed representation gives the bit pattern meaning as sound data.
