Now, as for your array of bytes, theoretically the maximum size is ~2 billion bytes, but you will never be. able to allocate that size from a 32 bit process. Same goes for your 420. Mbytes array, allocating this from a 32 bit process will certainly lead to. OOM failures, as a result of heap fragmentation.
A byte consists of 8 bits and is typically used to represent a single logical character. As each of the 8 bits can contain either of two binary values (1 or 0) the total number of combinations in any byte is therefore 2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2 = 2**8 = 256. The literal character for any particular byte value can vary depending on the Code being used by the computer.
