Narrator: T-REX AS: "THE COMPUTER SCIENTIST"
Narrator: part 2
T-Rex: Okay, so we covered how everything in a computer is stored in binary code!
T-Rex: And we covered how any series of binary digits (called bits) can be transformed into a number. But these numbers are really large! They take a long time to send to someone. Luckily, it's possible to send any number, and therefore any file of ANY size, using only two
T-Rex: single
T-Rex: bits.
Utahraptor: Sure, all you need are sychronized timers! Send one bit to say 'start counting' and a second to say 'stop!'
T-Rex: What?
Utahraptor: Yeah! Then all you have to do is count the amount of time between when you got the 'start' and 'end' bits, and that's your number! Transform it into binary code, and you've got your file!
T-Rex: Well - yeah!
Utahraptor: Ha ha, I knew it! I am the smartest dude!
T-Rex: Yeah, but there's more to being smart than knowing compression schemes!
Off panel: No there's not!
T-Rex: 〚thinks〛 He knows the secret!!
