Byte consisting of 8 bits and being a signed data type, holding values from −128 to 127. .NET programming languages, such as C#, define both an unsigned codice_1 and a signed codice_3, holding values from 0 to 255, and −128 to 127, respectively. In data transmission systems, the byte is defined as a contiguous sequence of bits in a serial data stream representing the smallest distinguished unit of data. A transmission unit might include start bits, stop bits, or parity bits, and thus could vary from 7 to 12 bits to contain a single 7-bit ASCII code. Byte The byte is
SEX (computing) SEX (computing) In computing, the SEX assembly language mnemonic has often been used for the "codice_1" machine instruction found in the Motorola 6809. A computer's or CPU's "sex" can also mean the endianness of the computer architecture used. x86 computers do not have the same "byte sex" as HC11 computers, for example. Functions are sometimes needed for computers of different endianness to communicate with each other over the internet, as protocols often use big endian byte coding by default. On the RCA 1802 series of microprocessors, the SEX, for "codice_2," instruction is used to designate which of the machine's sixteen
