kilobyte
If a memory location stores one byte, then a kilobyte is made up of 1,000 locations.
kilobyte
Computer memory is divided into various sizes. A kilobyte (KB) is approximately 1000 bytes (the exact number is 1024)
One thousand memory locations are commonly referred to as a "kilobyte" (KB). In computing, a kilobyte is traditionally defined as 1,024 bytes, which corresponds to 1,000 memory locations if each memory location holds one byte. This term is often used in the context of computer memory and storage.
In standard binary usage for memory a KB is 1024 bytes. In standard decimal usage for disk drives a KB is 1000 bytes. Confused yet?
The answer to this question depends on two key factors, the definition of a kilobyte, and that of a memory location:First, is kilobyte meant in the standard engineering meaning of a multiplier of one thousand, or is it mean to represent a factor of 210, commonly known as a kilobyte, but more correctly called a kibibyte?Thus, one kilobyte can mean 1000 bytes, or 1024 bytes.Second, what is a memory location? Most memory types have a bitwise organization, so 1000 or 1028 bytes would refer to 8000 or 8196 bits, respectively, and refer to 8000 or 8196 memory locations thus.Other implementations of memories may implement a different granularity, for example based on 16, 24, 32 or even larger number of bits per location.
