Terabit
A terabit (Tb) is a unit of digital information equal to one trillion bits (10^12 bits).
History/Origin
The term 'terabit' was introduced as digital storage and data transfer rates increased, following the adoption of the metric system for data units. It became common in networking and high-capacity storage contexts during the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Terabits are used to measure data transfer speeds in high-speed networks, internet bandwidth, and large-scale data storage systems, especially in contexts requiring rapid data transmission and large capacity assessments.
Character
A character is a unit of data representing a symbol, letter, digit, or other mark used in text processing and storage.
History/Origin
The concept of a character originated with the development of written language and was adapted into digital computing with the advent of character encoding standards such as ASCII and Unicode in the 20th century.
Current Use
In data storage and computing, a character typically refers to a unit of data that encodes a symbol or letter, commonly stored as 1 byte in ASCII or variable length in Unicode encoding schemes.
