Memory Units: bit, byte, Kilo Byte, MegaByte, GigaByte, TeraByte, Peta Byte, Exa Byte, Zetta Byte, Yotta Byte

Memory is one of the most important components of a computer system as it stores data and instructions. Every memory chip contains thousands of memory locations. In the computer, the data is stored in the form of bits and bytes. A bit is the smallest storage unit of memory. A nibble is a collection of 4 bits. Eight bits combined together to form a single byte, and 1 byte represents a single character.
