Scalar quantity has only magnitude , but no direction while vector quantity has both magnitude and direction.You can understand it by comparing speed and velocity.Velocity has magnitude of speed in a particular direction (or say displacement/time take) while speed only defines the rate of distance covered (no direction).
If you are still unable to get your answer for your question then please, elaborate or give some description of extension.

True, a vector quantity has direction, and a scalar quantity does not.
Electrical Potential Energy is a scalar or real number. Ep = zc e2 /4pi r.Total Energy is a Quaternion, the sum of the real or potential energy and the vector energy, Ev= mcV;E = Es + Ev = zc e2 /4pi r + mcV where Ev = mcV and V is the vector velocity.
A byte is 8 bits. They can represent all of the ASCII characters and any value between 0 and 255. It could be both. It just represents a value.
Physics as taught in high school would say that work is a scalar quantity.More sophisticated forms of physics would say that work done is a Quaternion, both a scalar and a vector.Work is bothw= [0,F][0,D]=[ 0 - F.D, 0 + 0 + FxD] = [-F.D, FxD] = -F.D + FxD. -F.D = -FDcos(FD) is scalar work out, andw= FxD= FDsin(FD) a vector called Torque.
Vector Energy, mcV, it is not a scalar energy. The total energy is the sum of the scalar potential energy and the vector energy of motion. This combination is called Quaternion energy, E = -e1e2zc/2r + mcV.
scalar direction is a vector quantity
vector

A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.A vector quantity includes a direction; a scalar does not.
A scalar quantity is a non-vector quantity. In a vector quantity, direction is relevant. In a scalar quantity, it is not. For example, mass (measured in kg.) is a scalar; force is usually indicated as a vector (magnitude in Newton, but the direction is also relevant).A scalar quantity is a non-vector quantity. In a vector quantity, direction is relevant. In a scalar quantity, it is not.

Scalar quantity.
Density is a scalar quantity. We don't talk about the density of a material as having direction, which is a characteristic of a vector quantity.
A scalar quantity added to a vector quantity is a complex quantity. An example is a complex number z = a + ib, a is the scalar and ib is the vector quantity.If the vector quantity is 3 dimensional, ib + jc + kd, then the scalar and vector forms a quaternion quantity.
Vector is NOT a scalar. The two (vector and scalar) are different things. A vector is a quantity (measurement) in which a direction is important. A scalar is a quantity in which a direction is NOT important.
