the basic unit used to store computer data, called bit. There are just two main numbers and one zero. All files are stored in the computer as binary files and translated into words and images by software. Bits are grouped to a larger unit. Next, a unit slightly larger than a byte is formed from a combination of eight bits. Bits are combined in groups to form larger units. Next, a unit slightly larger than a byte, which is caused by a combination of eight bits and can represent the 0-255, which is two to the power of all eight possible combinations of eight bits that are larger units. Next, after a byte, kilobyte, megabyte name, terrabyte and more.
