The biggest number you can make with a byte is 255, which in binary is 11111111, because it’s 128+64+32+16+8+4+2+1. You can also represent more complex information with bytes than you can with bits.

The first versions of ASCII used 7-bit codes, which meant they could attach a character to every binary number between 0000000 and 1111111, which is 0 to 128 in decimal.

Binary and hexadecimal numbers systems underpin the way modern computer systems work. Low-level interactions with hexadecimal (hex) and binary are uncommon in the world of Java programming, but ...

ASCII code allows computers to understand how to represent text. In ASCII, each character (letter, number, symbol or control character) is represented by a binary value.

He helped Hopper create the computer language that he named COBOL, or Common Business Oriented Language. He helped create the standard measurement of eight bits per byte.
