yes it is true. Dr. Werner Buchholz meant to use bite but used byte! oops! lol
The homophone for "byte" is "bite."
Byte can function as a noun. It is a unit of digital information that typically consists of 8 bits.
Byte and bight are homophones for bite.
The homonym for bite is byte. Bite refers to taking a mouthful with teeth, while byte is a unit of digital information in computing.
"Byte" and "bite" are homophones, words that are pronounced the same but have different meanings. "Byte" is a unit of digital information while "bite" refers to chewing with teeth.
If two bits of a byte are in error when the byte is read from ECC memory, ECC can detect the error.
ECC can detect the error but cannot correct it.
Not without casting. A char is a 16 bit type, whereas a byte is an 8 bit type. Therefore the compiler cannot guarantee that the 16 bit value will fit into the 8 bit value without overflowing. If you attempt to stick a char into a byte, you will get a compiler error. To override this, you can cast the char value to a byte during assignment. However, you might get some unexpected results. A few examples below: char a = 'A'; byte b = a; //compiler error char a = 'A'; byte b = (byte)a; //valid, no error. b=65 char a = 172; byte b = (byte)a; //valid, no error, but b=-84 because of overflow.
If referring to byte size, there is no such thing. "Gigabyte" is the closest to this spelling and is 1,024 megabytes.
Compilation is generally the process of parsing the human-readable source code and turning it into machine-readable byte code. Runtime occurs during the execution of the byte code as a program. Examples: A compile-time error is an error that occurs while the source code is being turned into byte code. A runtime error is an error that occurs while the program is executing.

yes because each byte represents one letter.
MB is Mega Byte GB is Giga Byte and Ghz is Giga hurtz. (and for all I know is that MB is the smallest and Ghz is the biggest. and correct me if my spelling is wrong sorry) ^++++++++++^
Because the people who decided to name them bits decided that 8 bits makes up a byte. It is just like asking why is a knife called a knife no real reason.
A ninth bit is added to each byte, and its value is set so that the number of 'ones' in the nine bits is always even. That's "even parity".
6 A byte can be an eight digit b number. On some computing applications, bytes can be other sizes. Not every 8 digit b number is called a byte because byte refers to a computing context.
