2 bytes=16 bits make a word
there are 1024 words in a 64-bits iterm
Eight bits to the octet. The values are 0-255.
2 bytes 8 bits in a byte
I think 32 bits but it really doesn't matter because I heard the ps3 has a 32 bit operating system and the wii has a 32/64 bit so bits have no meaning anymore

2 Bytes(16-bits) make a half word
16 bits
Each letter usually has seven bits, so the word "sane" has 4x7, or 28 bits.
16
If you are using the ASCII system, the word "duck", as it has four letters, contains 4 bytes, or 32 bits.
8 bits make one bite
A word typically refers to a 16-bit quantity, where 32-bits is called a longword.
No, computers have been built with as few as 1 bit in a word to 72 bits in a word and architectures have been proposed with as many as 256 bits in a word.
depends....
8bit 16 bits 32 bits and 64 bits and 128 bits imply a broadside [parallel] output of that many bits of digital information on a buss output. these bits represent a word output. therefore the longest the word the more information can be processed at a time imply more bits the faster the computer or data flow.

It's actually bits, not bite. There are 8 bits to one byte, and 4 bits make a nibble.
