  2. The byte is a unit of digital information in computing and telecommunications. It is an ordered collection of bits, in which each bit denotes the binary value of 1 or 0. ...
  3. The Byte is a one man sailing dinghy. It is produced by xtreme Sailing Products of Singapore and PS2000 in North America, and was previously produced by Topper Sailboats in the UK. However, Topper ceased production of GRP boats to concentrate on its rotomolded plastic designs. It is 12 ft (3. ...

  6. (Byte/s) In telecommunications, bit rate or data transfer rate is the average number of bits, characters, or blocks per unit time passing between equipment in a data transmission system. This is typically measured in multiples of the units bit per second or byte per second.
  7. (Bytes (album)) Bytes is an album by Ed Handley, Andy Turner and Ken Downie, under the name Black Dog Productions.
  8. A sequence of adjacent bits (binary digits) that can be operated on as a unit by a computer; the smallest usable machine word; nearly always eight bits, which can represent an integer from 0 to 255 or a single character of text; A unit of computing storage equal to eight bits
  9. (Bytes) A collection of eight bits that represent a character, letter or punctuation mark.
  10. (Bytes) A byte is a unit of information transferred over a network (or stored on a hard drive or in memory). Every web page, image, or other type of file is composed of some number of bytes. Large files, such as video clips, may be composed of millions of bytes ("megabytes"). ...
  11. (Bytes (B)) A series of eight bits. One type can define 256 levels (28). In terms of monochrome cameras, each pixel may be defined by one byte and can therefore be one of 256 shades between black and white, gray shades.
  12. (Bytes) Moving on the bytes. I’ve chosen to ignore weird bit representations in bytes. This should probably something taken into consideration in a primitive anyway. ...
  13. (Bytes) The unit of measure used by computers. In essence one character =1 byte.  It should be noted, a true kilobyte is actually slightly more than 1000 bytes, without looking it up, we think it is 1,056 bytes to a kilobyte.  If anyone can verify that, it would be appreciated. ...
