A byte stream is a technique where data is sent in units of eight bits known as bytes. It can represent a file, program data, or network data. A reliable path or pipeline is needed for efficient flow. Byte stream protocols are used for network communication, while UART uses byte-oriented protocols. A byte stream is […]
A bit is the smallest unit of measurement used to store information in computers, represented by a 1 or 0. Eight bits make up a byte, which can store letters, numbers, and symbols. Kilobits and kilobytes are used to measure data transfer rates, with lowercase abbreviations referring to bits and uppercase letters referring to bytes. […]
A byte array is a sequence of byte variables used to efficiently store and access large amounts of data, including binary files and string data. The standard byte contains 8 bits and can hold values between 0 and 255, or -127 and 127 if signed. However, the size of a byte can vary between programming […]
