Byte
Definition: A byte is a unit of digital information that most commonly consists of eight bits. It is the fundamental unit of data storage and processing in most computer systems.
History/origin: The term 'byte' was coined by Werner Buchholz in 1956 during the early development of the IBM Stretch computer. It was originally intended to represent the number of bits used to encode a single character of text.
Current use: Bytes are used ubiquitously in computing to represent the size of files, storage capacity, and data transferred over networks. Larger units such as kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, and terabytes are multiples of the byte.
Megabit
Definition: A megabit (Mb) is a unit of data storage equal to 1,000,000 bits. It's a multiple of the bit, which is the fundamental unit of information in computing and digital communications.
History/origin: The megabit is based on the bit and uses the SI prefix 'mega' to denote one million. The concept of bits arose with the development of digital computers and information theory in the mid-20th century.
Current use: Megabits are commonly used to measure data transfer rates, such as network speeds or internet connection speeds. For example, internet service providers often advertise speeds in megabits per second (Mbps).
