    There are eight bits in a byte or two nibbles in a byte meaning there are four bits in a nibble.

    bit::=binary digit. A unit of information introduced by Shannon in the 1940's. A bit has one of two values traditionally named 0 and 1. Eight bits make a byte. and four bits a nibble.
    So calculate it for yourself if you can manage the arithmetic IE (THAT MEANS) (that is!!) if you can add up without the use of a calculator!)
