8 digits of binary code (either 0s or 1s)
for instance 00101001
each digit takes up one bit, there are 8 bits in a byte. Usually, a byte holds 1 character, either a letter or #
Boolean data type usually requires only 1 byte, because it represent only 1 of 2 possible values: true or false, which is represented as 1 or 0, so only 1 byte is needed.
A 'byte' is a unit of storage - not an input or output.
Storage cost per byte is very small number in cents. For example 1GB RAM cost around $AU20 today. The cost per byte would 20/1,073,741,824. 1GB=1,073,741,824bytes
A bit is the smallest unit of data storage and processing, representing a single binary digit (0 or 1). A byte, on the other hand, consists of 8 bits and is the basic unit of measurement for data storage and processing in computing. Bytes are used to represent characters, numbers, and other types of data, while bits are used for more granular operations within a byte.
Bits and bytes are units of data measurement and storage. A bit is the smallest unit of data and can have a value of either 0 or 1. A byte is made up of 8 bits and is used to represent a single character or symbol. In terms of storage capacity, a byte is larger than a bit and can store more information.
An ASCII character requires one byte of storage. A Unicode character requires between one and four bytes of storage, depending on the encoding format used.

No, 1 byte is equal to 1 character
A sentence is known as a string in computing, and strings normally take up several bytes of storage.
Boolean data type usually requires only 1 byte, because it represent only 1 of 2 possible values: true or false, which is represented as 1 or 0, so only 1 byte is needed.
why the letter A would take up one byte storage space
A byte is the smallest unit of storage. Mostly anything you do can take up a byte.
they are amounts of unit describing computer storage
The letter "a" takes up one byte of storage space because it is represented using the ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) encoding system, which assigns a unique integer value to each character. In ASCII, the letter "a" corresponds to the decimal value 97, which fits within a single byte (8 bits). This allows for 256 possible values in a byte, accommodating all standard ASCII characters, including letters, digits, and punctuation. Therefore, storing the letter "a" requires just one byte.
a byte is abasic storage unit in memory. when application program instructions and data are transferd to memory from storage devices. byte addressable memory refers to memory address that is accessed one byte (8 bits) at a time as opposed to 2 byte(16 bits), 4 byte(32 bits) or 8 byte(64 bits) addressable memory.
The unit of storage that represents one 8 bits is called a byte. A byte is commonly used as the basic unit of data in computing and digital communications, with each byte able to represent 256 different values (0 to 255).
A 'byte' is a unit of storage - not an input or output.
