KiloBytes
A kilobyte is equivalent to 1,024 bytes, often used to measure the size of small files like text documents or icons. It’s the first notable step up from the byte, giving a more practical way to describe data that involves text, simple graphics, or small images. Understanding kilobytes helps when considering storage for email attachments, photos, and more.
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.
