Word length of a processor: number of bits a CPU can process at one time: Pentium –bits,bytes Itanium –bits,bytes An example of bytes in use is an internet “IP” address e.g(IP addresses will be explain in later lectures) Big Bytes A byte has a natural numeric interpretation as an integer fromto using base 2, as described earlier. The bits are laid out exactly as expected for a numeric representation, with biton the right and biton # bytes bits of values (2#bits) low highE+E+E+E+E+E+E+E+E+E+E+36 Bits, Bytes and Data Types. C character data type requires one byte of storage. part of an instruction for a computer to execute Abit image is monochrome; anbit image supports colors or grayscales; and a or bit graphic supports true color. Conceptually very large array of bytes (byte =bits) Actually implemented with hierarchy of different memory types. The term is sometimes spelled nybble. C character data type requires one byte of storage. A byte is also •byte could be –bit in use,wasted bits (e.g., M/F in a database) –bits representing a number betweenand – an alphabetic character like W or + or– part of a character in another alphabet or writing system (2 bytes) – part of a larger number (2 ororbytes, usually) – part of a picture or sound 8 bits representing a number betweenand an alphabetic character like W or + orpart of a character in another alphabet or writing system (2+ bytes) part of a larger number (2 ororbytes, usually) part of a picture or sound. s =b. A byte is a sequence ofbits. byte: Abbreviation for binary term, a unit of storage capable of holding a single Byte-oriented memory organization. – Most current machines arebits (4 bytes) Limits addresses to 4GB Becoming too small for memory-intensive applications – High-end systems arebits (8 bytes) Tags •byte could be –bit in use,wasted bits (e.g., M/F in a database) –bits representing a number betweenand – an alphabetic character like W or + or– •byte could be –bit in use,wasted bits (e.g., M/F in a database) –bits storing a number betweenand – an alphabetic character like W or + or– part of a Abit image is monochrome; anbit image supports colors or grayscales; and a or bit graphic supports true color. A file is a sequence of bytes. Although all files are a sequence of bytes,m files can be regarded as text files or A size of the file is the number of bytes within the file. Nibbles are On the myth machines, pointers are bits long, meaning that a program can "address" up to bytes of memory, because each byte is individually addressable. Program being executed This is easy for unsigned values: simply add leading zeros to the representation (called "zero extension"). nibble: Half a byte – four bits. In Unix and Windows NT, address space private to particular “process”. SRAM, DRAM, disk. For signed values, we want the number to remain the same 1 byte is the minimum unit of memory that can be accessed. Bit n represents the value 2n, and the value of the byte becomes the sum of these bits. unsigned int i = s; // conversion to bit int, so i =b. nibble: Half a byte – four bits. Word length of a processor: number of bits a CPU can process at one time: Pentium –bits,bytes Itanium – Bits, Bytes and Data Types A bit is the smallest unit of storage represented byorA byte is typicallybits. A file is a EFA binary digit or bit has a value of eitheror 1; these are the values we can store in simple hardware devices. unsigned short s = 4; // short is a bit format, so. Nibbles are important in hexa imal and BCD representations. Only allocate for regions actually used by program. A bit is the smallest unit of storage represented byorA byte is typicallybits. This is a lot of CMU School of Computer Science Bits and Bytes A bit is the smallest unit of information that a computer can work on and can take two values “1” and “0,” although sometimes depending on con-text the values 1 byte is the minimum unit of memory that can be accessed.
