Computer data
1 bit | the smallest unit of data; 1 bit can be either on or off, 1 or 0, true or false, or however its 2 possible states are interpreted. |
4 bits | 1 nybble. 4 bits have 2^4 = 16 possible states. |
1 byte | 2 nybbles = 8 bits = 1 character of text (letter, number, space, punctuation) = 2^8 = 256 possible states. |
1024 bytes | 1Kb (Kilobyte) = 1,024 bytes |
1024 Kb | 1Mb (Megabyte) = 1,048,576 bytes |
