The word: microprocessors, is 15 characters long, and would need a minimum of 15 bytes to store as ASCII. Some systems may need additional bytes to indicate that text is stored there, or how long the text field is, though.

How much data can you put in 1 GB?

1 gigabyte equals 1000 megabytes, 1 megabyte equals 1000 kilobytes, and 1 kilobyte equals 1000 bytes. To give you some idea of the storage potential, a byte is used to store a character of text. If a line is 50 characters then a 1000 bytes is 20 lines of text, if a page is 50 lines, then 2500 bytes is a page and so a megabyte is 400 pages of text or a long book. So you can store a library of 1000 long books without pictures on a GB storage unit. Pictures require far more storage space. The amount needed depends on the size and resolution. You can put 1000 one MB picture on a 1 GB unit. Movies are frames of pictures and require vastly more storage and audio adds to the storage requirements.

What are the current measurements of capacity in a computer?

Computer storage is usually measured in bytes. A byte is equal to 8 bits. A bit is a single piece of binary information (a 1 or a 0).For example, if you have 16 ones and zeros of information, then that is 16 bits, or 2 bytes.1,000 bytes is called a kilobyte; 1,000,000 bytes is called a megabyte, and 1,000,000,000 bytes is called a gigabyte. Today's computers store many billions of bytes, so these days you'll see a computer storage capacity measured in GB (gigabytes). For example, I have a computer at home with 500 GBs of storage. Therefore, it holds 5,000,000,000 bytes.However, it gets confusing when the number of bytes in a kilobyte, or megabyte, etc. is calculated using powers of 2, which is historically how it has been done. Things like kilobyte, megabyte, etc. needed to be expressed as a multiple of 2. Therefore, a kilobyte, instead of being strictly 1,000, is 2^10 = 1,024 bytes. A megabyte is 2^20 = 1,048,576 bytes. Therefore, let's say you have a disk that can hold 450,000,000 bytes. Using the binary definition of megabyte, that is 429.15 MB, and not 450 MB. This has led to consumer confusion, when someone buys a computer that claims 750 MB but Windows reports 715.256 MB.

What is 100000000 bytes in GB?

It is either 0.1 GB, or 0.093 GB, depending on whom you ask. Storage devices are advertised as decimal (or "metric") gigabytes, which is 109 or 1,000,000,000 bytes. Microsoft Windows, and indeed most programs written by classic programmers, use binary gigabytes, which is 230 or 1,073,741,824 bytes. The latter definition gives a better view of how much storage is used, because storage devices store sections of 512 (29) bytes at once, not 500 bytes. This eases address computations, etc. as computers naturally use binary numbers. Manufacturers use decimal values so that neophyte computer users can understand exactly how much capacity they're buying.
