This concise article is to get an idea about the units of measuring digital information.

There are two units to be considered.

That is Bits and Bytes.

Bits

The bit is the smallest unit of digital information used for measuring data in computing. A single bit can have only one of the two values and mostly either 0 or 1.

The other types of two values that we can use in computer programming are as follows. 

Logical values (true/false)

Algebraic sign (+/-)

The lowercase b letter represents a bit in computing.

Bytes

The Byte is the fundamental unit of storage measurement and 8 bits are equal to 1 byte.

The uppercase B letter represents a byte in computing.

The following table includes all the units of storage measuring and the relationship between each other.
