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.
KiloBits
A kilobit is 1,024 bits, used primarily for measuring the speed of data transmission. It’s often seen in the context of internet bandwidth, where higher kilobit rates mean faster data transfer. It’s a smaller unit compared to bytes, but it's crucial for evaluating the performance of network connections and streaming speeds.
