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.
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.
