Byte Byte The byte is a unit of digital information that most commonly consists of eight bits, representing a binary number. Historically, the byte was the number of bits used to encode a single character of text in a computer and for this reason it is the smallest addressable unit of memory in many computer architectures. The size of the byte has historically been hardware dependent and no definitive standards existed that mandated the size – byte-sizes from 1 to 48 bits are known to have been used in the past. Early character encoding systems often used six bits, and machines
One-to-one computing there are sometimes individual schools going 1:1 or experimenting. Bombay school 1:1: Tiki School: Uddevalla Municipality 1:1 Chromebooks: Oak Lawn Kimbolton, UK Please note that Ranchodistrict are having an auction selling their 570 iPads which greatly reduces the credibility of a report they are swapping their chromebooks for iPads. One-to-one computing In the context of education, one-to-one computing (sometimes abbreviated as "1:1") refers to academic institutions, such as schools or colleges, that allow each enrolled student to use an electronic device in order to access the Internet, digital course materials, and digital textbooks. The concept has been actively explored and
