French term or phrase: premier bit à 1
Context:
Le flux binaire comporte une première séquence correspond au nœud de référence. Il s’agit dans cet exemple d’un nœud terminal appartenant au troisième niveau de profondeur. L’en-tête de la première séquence comporte alors un premier bit à 1 indiquant qu’il faut descendre au second niveau de profondeur, puis un second bit à 1 indiquant qu’il faut descendre au troisième niveau de profondeur, puis un troisième bit à 0 indiquant l’arrêt dans le niveau de résolution. Dès qu’un bit à 0 est ajouté, l’écriture de l’en-tête est terminée et la séquence est complétée par la valeur d’élévation différentielle du nœud de référence, soit la valeur 0, qui est codée sur 6 bits.

Still editing and this translated as :
includes a first 1-bit; second 1-bit etc.
Is this correct?
TIA Chris.

First set bit


Explanation:
Set bits in a binary number is represented by 1. Whenever we calculate the binary number of an integer value then it is formed as the combination of 0’s and 1’s. So, the digit 1 is known as set bit in the terms of the computer.
