yes it can have
There is not built-in 'byte' type in C, but you can define it: typedef unsigned char byte; byte bmin=0, bmax=255;
bit, nibble, byte, word
no
a character/byte as defined in the C programming language is one byte (8 bits). A string can be as short as one byte and can be as long as the physical memory limits can contain it.
As one byte can hold one letter of the alphabet, to store the word "Sarah" would take 5 bytes.
The size of a byte is typically hardware dependent, but the modern standard is eight bits. 8 bits can store 255 different values and this is enough to store one keyboard character. Therefore one byte can store one character of a text message.
The Another name of a BYTE is WORD. Sorry, but that is not correct. Computers do have a 'word length' which is described as a number of either Bits or Bytes. Most modern computers have a 16 bit or 32 bit, some 64 bit, word length. This 'word' is nothing to do with word processing or a typed document - it relates to the computers internal architecture. Some people use Byte and Character as the same thing but this again is not quite technically accurate. A Byte is always 8 bits by definition. However a character (eg the letter 'A') may vary in the number of bits required to store it. In most modern systems each character requires 8 bits - which just happens to be one Byte. Some older systems used 5, 6 or 7 bit characters. A correct technical word to use in place of Byte is Octet.
A Word is of 3 Types. 1. Half Word- It is 16 bit or 1 byte long 2. Double Word or DWORD- It is 32 Bit or 2 byte long 3. Quad Word or QWORD- it is 64 bit or 8 byte long
A byte is a sequence of 8 zeroes or ones in a binary system, which is known as a bit. One byte can store one alphanumeric character.
