of memory, are called bits.
A 4-bits word is called a Nibble. Examples of
nibble are 1001, 1010, 0010,"Enlighting
etc. Education"
A two nibble word, i.e., 8-bits word is called a
byte, for example, 01000110, 01111100, 10000001,
etc.
Units of Memory
Like any other standard unit, bytes are grouped together to
make bigger chunks or units of memory.
ELITE
4 Bits=1 Nibble
CLASSES
8Bits=1 byte
