The problem depends on the unit of measurement you are using.

 

This is why when you buy a computer with lets say...50GB of hardrive, and then you go to the computer properties, you actually have less space than that.

 

 

 

It can either be 1000 bytes or 1024 bytes.

 

 

 

By Human measurements, 1000 bytes is 1 kb, but by a computer measurements 1024 bytes (2^10) is 1 kb

Is like oldschool hackers favorite question: How much grams in kilogram :) and depends from answer:

 

 

 

1000 - mean lamer :)

 

1024 - mean then your answer good :)

Suggestion: You can use Anchor on Waterfiends - is cheap if to compare to GS & effective with crush attack & it hit like Whip.

1 kibibyte (1KiB) = 1024 bytes (2^10)

 

1 kilobyte (1KB) = 1000 bytes (10^3)

 

 

 

Computers run of a binary system (their numbers have 0 and 1 in them) because they store numbers as having voltage (1) or not having voltage (0). So they prefer to work in kibibytes because they run in base 2. People run in base 10 (our numbers have 0 through 9), and a highly excepted theory says its because we have 10 fingers.

 

 

 

Kilobyte was developed for people and runs under the metric system. A kibibyte runs under binary equivalence to the metric system. But as you can see both numbers are pretty much the same, so no on really cares. But to answer your question:

 

 

 

1 kilobyte = 1000 bytes

Got his first skill cape April 7th 2009, at lv 121+12 cb and 2000 total

beyond what's already mentioned, there's also a problem with difference between bits and bytes.

 

 

 

8 bits = 1 byte

 

 

 

This is especially important when you're talking about internet speed:

 

 

 

Dialup

 

56k = 56,000 bits = 7 kilobytes

 

 

 

DSL/cable

 

768k = 96 kilobytes per second

 

1.5mb = 192 kilobytes per second

 

3mb = 384 kilobytes per second

Just you forget then typical network protocol to transfer 1 byte of information use 10 bits

 

 

 

1 Start byte

 

8 Data

 

1 Stop byte

 

 

 

What mean then teorically it transfer 7kilobytes per second, but data trasfer speed is is 56k / 10 = 5,6Kilobytes ;)

 

 

 

What i said about kilograms is just Oldscool hackers joke :) that just mean then you think in Binary or hex at normal life too :D
