Jedhi Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 What's the difference between byte and Byte ? Quote
wildfire1982 Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 One of them has a capital B at the beginning. Byte is normally used in capital like MegaByte MB and Megabit Mb. Does that answer the question or did you mean something different? Quote Chris
Mike Bailey Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 A bite is one bite of information like a letter or number. A Byte is 8 bits Quote
Kurt Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 A letter or a number can't be represented by a bit! 1 bit is either 0 or 1. A byte is a sequence of 8 bits. In older programming languages, a character is represented by a byte that contains the ascii code for that character. In .NET however, characters are represented by their unicode value.... And a number like an int (Int32) is stored in memory in 4 bytes.... Quote qrt
Mehyar Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 I think Jedhi is talking about the byte and Byte in C# and VB.NET respectively. Byte represents 1 byte of memory = 8 bits (this type is present in VB.NET) byte is the same but this type is used in C# Hope this helps, Quote Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today
