(BRONTOsaurus BYTE) One quadrillion terabytes. Although the term was coined years ago, and the collective capacity of all the storage drives in the world are nowhere near one brontobyte, we like to think in digital extremes in this industry. After the brontobyte comes “geopbyte” (a thousand brontobytes).
Which is bigger nibble or bit?
Binary values are often grouped into a common length of 1’s and 0’s, this number of digits is called the length of a number. Each 1 or 0 in a binary number is called a bit. From there, a group of 4 bits is called a nibble, and 8-bits makes a byte.
What is upper nibble and lower nibble?
Nibble is half a byte (0-15, or one hex digit). Low nibble are the bits 0-3; high nibble are bits 4-7.
