A text-editing application uses binary sequences to represent each of 200 different characters. What is the minimum number of bits needed to assign a unique bit sequence to each of the possible characters

Use a physical stopwatch to record the length of time it takes to run the program. calculate the difference obtained by calls to the method system.currenttimemillis() just before the start of the algorithm and just after the end of the algorithm. calculate the difference obtained by calls to the method system.currenttimemillis() at the start of the program and at the end of the program so that the elapsed time includes the display of the result. use the value returned by the method system.currenttimemillis() just after the end of the algorithm as the elapsed time.
