Byte member of the basic character set of the execution environment"" (clause 3.6 of the C standard). The C standard requires that the integral data type "unsigned char" must hold at least 256 different values, and is represented by at least eight bits (clause 5.2.4.2.1). Various implementations of C and C++ reserve 8, 9, 16, 32, or 36 bits for the storage of a byte. In addition, the C and C++ standards require that there are no "gaps" between two bytes. This means every bit in memory is part of a byte. Java's primitive codice_1 data type is always defined as
64-bit computing in 64 bits depends on the integer representation used. With the two most common representations, the range is 0 through 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 (2 − 1) for representation as an (unsigned) binary number, and −9,223,372,036,854,775,808 (−2) through 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (2 − 1) for representation as two's complement. Hence, a processor with 64-bit memory addresses can directly access 2 bytes (=16 exabytes) of byte-addressable memory. With no further qualification, a "64-bit computer architecture" generally has integer and addressing processor registers that are 64 bits wide, allowing direct support for 64-bit data types and addresses. However, a CPU might have external data buses or address
