* What is Bit? (Definition of Bit)
Ans 1 - Definition: A Bit is a digit in the binary number system. It can have two values, 0 or 1. In computer RAM and ROM memory, a bit is a small electrical switch which is either on (value 1) or off (value 0).
However bits don't exist individually but in groups of 8 and that is a byte. So one Kilobyte of RAM = 1024 bytes or 8192 bits.
Ans 2 -A bit is the basic unit of information in computing and digital communications. A bit can have only one of two values, and may therefore be physically implemented with a two-state device. The most common representation of these values are 0 and 1. The term bit is a contraction of binary digit.
