The monograph, typed on a computer, contains 1,024 pages, each page has 56 lines, each line contains 64 characters. Characters are encoded using Unicode encoding, in which each character is encoded in 16 bits. Determine the information volume of the monograph.

First, let’s find the number of characters in the article:

1024 * 56 * 64 = 3670016 = 2 ^ 19 * 7;

One character is encoded in two bytes, 2 * 2 ^ 19 bytes is 1 Megabyte, therefore the information volume of the monograph is:

7 * 2 ^ 20 = 7 Megabytes.

Answer: the information volume of the monograph is 7 Megabytes.
