Byte
Technical Precision
In computing, 'byte' is used for precise data size and storage.
That file is exactly 4,000 bytes.
Not Interchangeable
'Byte' and 'bit' are different; a byte is 8 times larger than a bit.
High-quality audio is encoded at 320 kbps, but that's kilobits, not kilobytes.
Storage Units
Bytes are the building blocks for larger units like KB, MB, GB, TB.
My hard drive has a capacity of 1 terabyte.
