Perhaps you mean 4 bits at a time, I guess its a nibble

How many bytes are required to encode n bits of data where n equals 4?

One byte is 0.125 to 1 bit. So 4 bits, is .5 bytes.


32bits words equals to how many byes?

A 32-bit word equals 4 bytes, since there are 8 bits in a byte. Therefore, to convert bits to bytes, you divide the number of bits by 8. So, 32 bits divided by 8 gives you 4 bytes.


How many bytes integer variable can take?

The number of bytes an integer variable can take depends on the programming language and the system architecture. Typically, in languages like C and C++, an int usually takes 4 bytes (32 bits) on a 32-bit or 64-bit architecture, while a short takes 2 bytes and a long can take 4 or 8 bytes depending on the system. In Python, integers can vary in size and can take more than 4 bytes, depending on their value, as they are dynamically allocated. Always check the specific language documentation for precise details.


What is the largest hex number represented in bytes?

The largest hex number that can be represented in bytes depends on the number of bytes being considered. Since one byte consists of 8 bits, the maximum value for one byte is 255 in decimal, which is represented as FF in hexadecimal. For multiple bytes, the largest hex number is determined by the number of bytes times 2 (since each byte is represented by two hex characters). For example, for 4 bytes, the largest hex number is FFFFFFFF.


What is the number of bytes in ipv4 address represented in dotted decimal notation?

An IPv4 address represented in dotted decimal notation consists of four octets, each ranging from 0 to 255. Each octet is 1 byte, so the total size of an IPv4 address is 4 bytes. Thus, an IPv4 address in dotted decimal notation is 4 bytes in size.
