1 byte is a group of bits that, together make up a character.

This is typically 8 bits, but not always.

1 bit is a binary unit (on/off, 0/1, positive/negative).
Abbreviation for binary term, a unit of storage capable of holding a single character. On almost all modern computers, a byte is equal to 8 bits. Large amounts of memory are indicated in terms of kilobytes (1,024 bytes), megabytes (1,048,576 bytes), and gigabytes (1,073,741,824 bytes).
