A bit string is a string of bits (0's and 1's).
The length of a bit string is the number of bits in the string.
An example, of a bit string of length four is 0010.
An example, of a bit string of length five is 11010.
Use the Rule of Products to determine the following:
(a) How many bit strings are there of length eight? Explain.
(b) How many bit strings are there of length eight which begin with two 1's? Explain.
Solution contains calculations of number of bit strings of length eight'.
