Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? computer language consists of only two numbers 0 and 1, which is known as binary language In binary system, the smallest unit is bit.(i.e.,only 1 digit) group of 4 bits is NIBBLE. e.g. 0001, 0101, 1010 and group of 8 bits is BYTE. |

Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? A Nibble or Nybble is a four bit aggragation of half a octet. As a nibble consists of 4 bits, they are 16 possible values. so the nibble correspondd to the Hexadecimal digit or hex digit or hexit. A fully byte (octet) is represented by two hexa decimal digit, therefore it is common to display a byte of information as two nibbles. |

Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? NIBBLE IN COMPUTING :-A nibble (often nybble or related to byte). # Nibble is a four bits aggregation or half an octet. #A nibble contain 4 bits there are 16 value possible. #The nibble is used to decribed the amount of memory used to store a digit in packed decimal. Example:- 0 hex =0 dec= 0 oct 1 hex =1 dec = 1 oct 2 hex = 2 dec =2 oct 3 hex = 3 dec = 3 oct 4 hex = 4 dec = 4 oct same upto 16 |

Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? A nibble is also called nybble or even nyble to simulate the spelling of byte.A byte is a four-bit aggregation or half an octet. As a nibble contains 4 bits, there are sixteen possible values, so a nibble corresponds to a single hexadecimal digit which is often referred to as a "hex digit" or "hexit" in the computer language. The nibble is used to describe the amount of memory used to store a digit of a number stored in packed decimal format within an IBM mainframe. This technique is used to make computations faster and debugging easier. A nibble is four bits grouped together. A byte holds two nibbles- 1. Upper nibble-one being the first four bits 2. Lower nibble-the other being the second four bits Given that a bit can store a zero or a one, a nibble can store any combination of four bits from 0000 to 1111 and a byte can store any combination of eight bits from 0000 0000 to 1111 1111.

Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? Nibble in Computer Language 1 nibble = 4 bits Nibble is the second most smallest unit for measuring the memory. It is also called as an elementary unit . Also 1 byte = 2 nibbles = 8 bits 1 KB = 1024 bytes 1 MB = 1024 KB 1 GB =1024 MB thank you |

Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? hi nibble means 4 bits of computer memory 4 bits - 1 nibble, which in the sense 2 nibble makes 1 byte. that is very usefull in computer......... |

Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? hi, nibble means 4bits =1 nibble 2 nibble= 1 byte Hexadecimal number are formed using four bits groups called nibbles...... |

Re: What is Nibble in Computer Language? Quote:
 NIBBLE IN COMPUTER LANGUAGE A nibble ( or nybble ) is nothing but 4 bits of the computer memory. -> A bit is the most basic unit of information in a computer. It can be either "on" or "off". -> The computer memory is measured in the form of byte's, in which 8 bits - 1 byte. -> So in the same way 4 bits - 1 nibble, which in the sense 2 nibble makes 1 byte. -> The 2 nibble's which make a byte can be divided as high order nibble and low order nibble respectively. -> Hexadecimal numbers are formed using four-bit groups called nibbles. -> Nibble can also be pronounced as nybble. |
