1. Bit
Bit is the smallest unit of computer storage, abbreviated as b, also known as bit (bit), the state of each bit can only be 0 or 1.
2. Byte
Byte, English Byte, is a unit of measurement used by computers to measure storage capacity. One byte can store one English letter or half a Chinese character.
3. Word
Word is a term that represents the natural data unit of a computer. In a particular computer, a word is a fixed-length bit group used to process transactions at one time.
For example: an 8-bit machine, its 1 word is equal to 1 byte, the word length is 8 bits. If it is a 16-bit machine, then its 1 word is composed of 2 bytes, and the word length is 16 bits.
- The relationship between bit, byte and word
1 word = 2 bytes, 1 word = 16 bits,
1 byte = 8 bits, 1 bit = 1 bit - Computer storage
1 B = 8 bit;
1 KB = 1024B;
1 MB = 1024 KB;
1 GB = 1024 MB;
1 TB = 1024 GB;
