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.
In Unix, wildcards are special characters used in command-line operations to represent one or more characters in file names or strings. The most common wildcards are the asterisk *, which matches zero or more characters, and the question mark ?, which matches exactly one character. Additionally, square brackets [] can be used to specify a range or set of characters to match. These wildcards facilitate file manipulation and searching by allowing users to refer to groups of files or patterns without needing to specify each file name explicitly.
