You are allowed to attempt only once, if you submit multiple times I will void all your submissions. Please make sure you get to the last page and see the confirmation before you leave. It is recommended that you complete this quiz before 10 October, but anytime before the 12th week is OK. You will NOT be shown your score immediately, I will update the scores every weekend on Moodle. PLEASE UNDERSTAND ANY SUBMISSION IS FINAL, YOU CANNOT RETAKE THE TEST OR MODIFY YOUR ANSWERS AFTERWARDS! Good luck.

Analogue signals can always be converted to digital without losing information. None of above. Q1.5 (0.5pt) Which of the following regarding parity bit is correct? Parity bit can detect all corruption in data transmission. Parity bit can recover original data from corrupt transmission. Parity bit is always 1 single bit for every byte of transmission. None of above. 1 out of 5 Q2 (2.5pt) Including the previous borrow bit, write down the 4bits of borrow for 4bit subtraction of 8 - 5. 2 out of 5 Write down a single number to answer the following questions.
