Bits
A bit is the most basic unit of digital information. Bit represents a binary value of either 0 or 1. It forms the foundation of all digital computing, where combinations of bits can be used to encode data such as numbers, letters, and multimedia. The bit is fundamental to everything from the data stored in a smartphone to complex instructions processed by supercomputers.
Bytes
A byte is a collection of 8 bits and is one of the most commonly used units of digital information. It typically represents one character, such as a letter, number, or symbol, in a computer's memory. Bytes are the building blocks of larger data units and are used extensively in defining the storage and memory capacities of electronic devices.
