With 6 binary digits, you have 26 different possibilities. This is because there are two possibilities for each digit, and each digit is independent of the other digits - so you just multiply the possibilities for each digit together.

The different digits have different values.
To represent the name "Sam" in binary code, you need to convert each letter to its ASCII value and then to binary. The ASCII values for 'S', 'a', and 'm' are 83, 97, and 109, respectively. In binary, these values are represented as: 'S' = 01010011, 'a' = 01100001, and 'm' = 01101101. Therefore, "Sam" in binary code is 01010011 01100001 01101101.
Using 5 bits, a total of (2^5) different numbers can be represented. This equals 32, allowing for values ranging from 0 to 31 in unsigned binary representation. If signed representation is used (e.g., two's complement), the range would be from -16 to 15, still totaling 32 distinct values.
The two sets of digits have different place values.
