Is a megabyte the largest unit of measurement?
For measuring computer storage (memory), both gigabyte and terabyte are larger. See related link for more prefixes. Note that there has been some confusion with using the 'metric' prefixes with memory. Originally, a kilobyte was 1024 bytes (not 1000), and a megabyte was (1024 x 1024 = 1048,576 bytes)
Is aproxiametly one million bytes?
Almost 1 Megabyte. 1 Megabyte is a unit of computer memory or data storage capacity, equal to 1,048,576 (220) bytes.
What is the effect of increasing the number of bytes allocated to the mantissa?
The mantissa holds the bits which represent the number, increasing the number of bytes for the mantissa increases the number of bits for the mantissa and so increases the size of the number which can be accurately held, ie it increases the accuracy of the stored number.
How many bytes does the letter S take up?
The letter S uses 1 byte of memory, as do all the other ASCII characters.
What does the K after a number mean?
Depending upon context it could mean:A temperature on the kelvin scale, eg 0K is absolute zero, 273.15K is the freezing point of water;the number is multiplied by 1000, eg 10K means 10 × 1,000 = 10,000 (this is the basis of the kilo- prefix in the metric system, written as a lower case 'k');an abbreviation for kilometres (especially with commentators), eg a 10K race is a 10 km race (this comes from the previous context in that 10K = 10,000 and metres is assumed to be/implicit as the length unit);in old computing terms it could refer to 1024 bytes, eg a Commodore Pet 3032 came with 32K RAM, meaning it had 32 × 1024 bytes = 32,768 bytes of RAM (1024 is the closest power of 2 to 1000, and the "bytes" was implicit when talking about memory sizes back then).
There is kilo mega giga and tera bits and bytes of memory what is the largest measurement available today?
Tera Bytes are the largest unit of measurement.
What is the largest memory measurement for acomputer?
A yottabyte. (1 octillion bytes)
What type of units represents the largest amounts of data?
yottabyte (YB)10008 bytes1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes
Ram memory is measured in bytes how many bytes are there in 2gb of ram memory?
2147483648 bytes
A megabyte represents how many memory locations?
1024 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte 1024 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte 1 Megabyte = 10242 Bytes= 1,048,576 Bytes
What is better more memory or more bytes?
Its the same. The unit for memory is bytes.
What are computer bytes of memory and name the various bytes sizes?
Bytes of memory are chucks of code that help put a program or file together. The largest we have so far is petabyte then going down in size are: terabyte, gigabyte, megabyte, kilobyte, then just byte, then even smaller is a bit.
A byte stored in AL is present in array of 10 bytes stored in the memory Store the number of occurrences of the byte in register AH?
Of 10 bytes simply stored in the memory? YAWN...
What is the largest hex number that can be represented in four bytes?
The Largest 4Bytes Hex number is FFFF FFFF which is 65535 in decimal.
How do you transfer 20 consecutive bytes from one location to another location?
You can use a memory move function like memcpy to transfer 20 consecutive bytes from one memory location to another memory location. Make sure to specify the source, destination, and the number of bytes to transfer.
If a memory had 16 bit address bus and a 32 bit data bus what is the largest size of the memory?
A memory with a 16 bit address bus can address 216 or 65536 distinct items. If each item is 32 bits in size, then the item is 4 bytes. The size of this memory is then 262144 bytes. (256Kb)
What is the number of bytes called that a storage medium can hold?
It is the memory capacity of the storage unit.
