Bits & The Computer
We've already talked about how everything in the computer is bits.
Let's continue going down that route.

Bits & DataTypes
We are hopefully understanding that bits are conceptually important, and hopefully, that we can interact with them at least a little bit. In Python, bits aren't that important, but they can be important in other programing languages. Let's look a little at them in Java.
I'm going to abruptly cut the video, I want you to continue where I leave off.

TASK
Try hitting the max value in a data type, and going over to see what happens. Show me what happens when the value for a variable exceeds the number of bits allocated for that data type. We call this an overflow error. Let's learn a bit more about overflow errors.
Upload screenshots showing that you managed to get unexpected output due to these overflow errors. Can you hit an unexpected result through sibtraction?
