touch filename
e.g. $ touch dummy
Use the 'touch' command. You cannot create a zero byte file with 'vi'.
touch newfile will make a new empty file in linux os !
Seek to the end of the file (fseek) and check how many bytes are in the file If the byte count is zero the file is empty.
A bit is a 1 or a zero. It uses the base 2 number system. There are 8 bits in a byte.

The VERIFY command cannot be used for an empty VSAM file where the high used RBA (Relative Byte Address) in its catalog record is 0 (zero).
A 'bit'. A bit is a binary unit that can be either a One, or a Zero. Typically, 8 bits make a byte.
A byte offset, typically used to index into a string or file, is a zero-based number of bytes. For example, in the string "this is a test", the byte offset of "this" is 0, of "is" is 5,"a" is 8, and "test" is 10.Note that this is not always the same as the "character offset". Some characters, such as Chinese ideograms, require two or more bytes to represent. Using ASCII characters only will ensure that the byte offset is always equal to the character offset.
byte has 8 bits all bits at 0 = zero all bits at 1 = 255
A bit is one binary unit - either a one or a zero. A byte contains 8 bits. (so for example a byte would look like "10011011") Half a byte (or 4 bits) is called a nibble, no kidding!
Each byte has eight bits of information, i.e., either a 1 or a zero. A giga byte is 1,000,000,000 bytes of information or 1 GB.
A byte is a unit of computer memory equaling 8 bits. A bit is a one or a zero. A byte is essentially equal to one character, as it can store a value from 1 to 255. A byte is too small to store any songs. Perhaps the questioner means a megabyte(1,000,000 bytes) or a gigabyte(1,000,000,000 bytes)?
