The statement that is not true about how computers represent complex information is: "Depending on context the same sequence of bits may represent different types of information." This statement is incorrect because, in computer systems, the interpretation of a sequence of bits is fixed by the data type or context defined by the program or system. While the same bit pattern can physically exist, it does not inherently represent different types of information without explicit context or interpretation rules applied by software. The other statements about computers using patterns of bits, abstraction helping represent complex information, and common abstractions like numbers, characters, and colors being represented by computing devices are true

. In summary, computers represent complex information using patterns of bits and abstractions, but the same bit sequence does not inherently represent different information types depending on context without explicit interpretation
