Units Of Computer Memory Measurements

A bit (also known as a binary digit) is the smallest unit of data in a computer.
A bit has binary value either 0 or 1.
Bits are rarely used. Bits are assembled into a group of eight are called Byte.
A byte contains enough information to store the data such as ASCII values like "m".

1 Bit = Binary Digit
8 Bits = 1 Byte
1024 Bytes = 1 Kilo Byte(KB)
1024 Kilo Byte(KB) = 1 Mega Byte(MB)
1024 MB = 1 Giga Byte(GB)
1024 GB = 1 Tera Byte(TB)
1024 TB = 1 Peta Byte(PB)
1024 PB = 1 Exa Byte(EB)
1024 EB = 1 Zetta Byte(ZB)
1024 ZB = 1 Yotta Byte(YB)
1024 YB = 1 Bronto Byte
1024 Bronto Byte = 1 Geop Byte(GB)
Where GB is the highest memory
