1byte
One byte is a unit of digital information typically consisting of eight bits. In modern computer architectures, a byte is the smallest addressable unit of memory and is commonly used to store a single character or a small integer. A byte can represent 256 distinct values (2^8); unsigned data range from 0 to 255, while signed data using two's complement range from -128 to 127. While ASCII characters fit in seven bits, a byte is used to store their 8-bit extended forms or other encodings.
Historically, some machines used bytes of different lengths, but the eight-bit byte has become the standard
For larger quantities, bytes are grouped in powers of two: kilobyte (KB) or kibibyte (KiB), megabyte (MB/MiB),
The notion of a byte as eight bits remains a foundational concept in computer science, memory design,
