| | Byte (magazine) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Early articles in Byte were do-it-yourself electronic or software projects to improve small computers. | | | Byte started in 1975, shortly after the first personal computers appeared as kits in the back of electronics magazines. | | | Whereas many magazines from the mid-1980s to date have been dedicated to the Wintel platform or the Mac, mostly from a business user's perspective, Byte covered developments in the entire field of "small computers and software", and sometimes included in-depth features on other computing fields as well, such as supercomputers and high-reliability computing. |

| | Define byte - a Whatis.com definition |
| | In some computer systems, four bytes constitute a word, a unit that a computer processor can be designed to handle efficiently as it reads and processes each instruction. | | | In most computer systems, a byte is a unit of data that is eight binary digits long. | | | A byte can also hold a string of bits that need to be used in some larger unit for application purposes (for example, the stream of bits that constitute a visual image for a program that displays images or the string of bits that constitutes the machine code of a computer program). |

| | Tom's Unofficial BYTE FAQ |
| | BYTE was the oldest personal computer magazine, founded in 1975, which was the same year the first kit-built personal computers appeared for sale. | | | BYTE readers were MIS decision-makers, engineers, programmers, college students, and others who are deeply interested in computer technology. | | | BYTE's circulation was about half a million, which is quite large for any computer magazine and especially for a publication as technical as BYTE. |

| | What is byte? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary |
| | Large amounts of memory are indicated in terms of kilobytes (1,024 bytes), megabytes (1,048,576 bytes), and gigabytes (1,073,741,824 bytes). | | | On almost all modern computers, a byte is equal to 8 bits. | | | This is Chapter 1 of Randall Hyde's book, "Art of Assembly Language." It describes the binary and hexadecimal numbering systems, binary data organization (bits, nibbles, bytes, words, and double words), signed and unsigned numbering systems, arithmetic, logical, shift, and rotate operations on binary values, bit fields and packed data, and the ASCII character set. |

| | RFC 176 (rfc176) - Comments on "Byte size for connections" |
| | Under current specifications "the byte size is fixed for the life of a connection".* This means that byte size cannot be varied during the life of a connection even if structure of data varies. | | | But for data transfer protocols, the byte size choice is more complex, as data may be structured in a variety of byte sizes. | | | Specifying a byte size for a data transfer connection reduces efficiency in instances where connection byte size does not correspond to data byte size. |

| | Buzzword Definition - Byte |
| | Most data in computers is organized and measured in bytes (although the data in a byte is actually stored as eight on/off signals called bits). | | | One byte can represent a character (such as A, 9, ?, or a space), or a value from 0 to 255. | | | A byte is a group of 8 bits, strung together. |

| | BYTE: Do you have any predictions about when you would be likely to distribute a workable environment in which, if we put it on our machines or workstations, we could actually get reasonable work done without using anything other than code that you distribute? | | | The only limit in the GNU system is when your program runs out of memory because it tried to work on too much data and there is no place to keep it all. | | | Stallman: Well, they send them to me. I asked all the people who wanted to be listed to promise that they would never ask any of their customers to keep secret whatever they were told or any changes they were given to the GNU software as part of that support. |

| | byte from FOLDOC |
| | A byte may be 9 bits on 36-bit computers. | | | Some older architectures used "byte" for quantities of 6 or 7 bits, and the PDP-10 and IBM 7030 supported "bytes" that were actually bit-fields of 1 to 36 (or 64) bits! | | | The term was coined by Werner Buchholz in 1956 during the early design phase for the IBM Stretch computer. |

| | The Old New Thing : Why do operations on "byte" result in "int"? |
| | Bytes are bytes and ints are ints - they should be separate. | | | Because the two operands to the + operator are both bytes, so the sum "b+c" is computed as a byte, which results in 16 due to integer overflow. | | | I have to agree that "byte" operations on "byte" declared operands should result in either "byte" type or throw typical number system errors such as overflow or underflow from C# or other CLS compliant compilers. |

| | Byte-order Mark |
| | The preferred place to specify byte order is in a file header, but text files do not have headers. | | | A byte-order mark is not a control character that selects the byte order of the text; it simply informs an application receiving the file that the file is byte ordered. | | | This is not possible, however, because microprocessors differ in the placement of the least significant byte: Intel and MIPS processors position the least significant byte first, whereas Motorola processors (and all byte-reversed Unicode files) position it last. |

| | Depending on which computing system you use, you will have to consider the byte order in which multibyte numbers are stored, particularly when you are writing those numbers to a file. | | | In "Big Endian" form, by having the high-order byte come first, you can always test whether the number is positive or negative by looking at the byte at offset zero. | | | Also, because of the 1:1 relationship between address offset and byte number (offset 0 is byte 0), multiple precision math routines are correspondingly easy to write. |
