No I don't. YOu thought it was megabucks, so couldn't be bothered to buy
one (for $18). You're now showing that on top of being ignoran, your're
stupid, and now a liar. ...not a good day, overall.
The ISO appears to sell it for $399. Those kinds of publications are
pricey, thats a fact of life. If someone found it for $18 ? sounds like a
bargain
None of which you've read or understood (or even seen - see above). You
were told somethign by your third-rate teachers at your fourth-rate
college (if you got that far) and believe them. Get a refund. They
defrauded you.
Or maybe Im so smart, so amazingly qualified and so experienced that Im not
afraid to be misinterpreted or misunderestimated
Si you admit that you're pig ignorant, but assume the rest of the world
has had an education as "good" as yours? Sorry, some of us have had very
good teachers. Experience; lots of it. Open minds help too. You should
try it some time.
I admit that I want a refund on some of the tuition I paid because the
school was incompetent, I was overqualified. You jump to conclusions, not
very open minded
You are not only pig-ignorant, now you're adding *stupid* to the mix. A
"byte" is *not* defined as an eight-bit entity (as JL has said, that would
be the definition of an "octet"). Of course there are 256 possible values
of an 8-bit entity (ignoring representations with two values for zero, for
instance). That's not the point! A byte is *not* universally defined as
being eight bits. Not nowhere, not nohow. It may be defined as being
eight buts for a particular ISA, but it's not a universal definition.
I said an 8 bit byte can represent the range of -127 to +127 and you said:
"Nope"
Its like arguing that the inch scale of measurement is arbitrary, its not.
With only a few rare exceptions in history, a byte is 8 bits, and is the
standard. We note with disk and memory sizes, they are rated in Mega or
Giga bytes. Network interface speeds in Mega bytes per second.
Western Digital could double their disk size by saying a byte is now 16 bits
wide.
One of the other factors in using the byte system is the Base 2 math, and
unless IM mistaken shifting left or right will double or divide by 2 the
binary base 2 number. Designers would therefore prefer a byte that is a
multiple, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
But since its already 8 bits, thats how its used.
Give me a f#@$!@# break. I was doing binary arithmetic when your father
was still s#@#$ yellow.
When a person begins losing a debate and has no declarative or informative
contribution, the discussion degrades into separate and unique steps,
personal attacks (pig stupid), then profanity, then rage, then violence.
If you claim to have understood binary at that specific point in time? you
would be over 100 years old. Congratulations that you are coherent and not
senile
You're hopeless. *I* didn't write the above you retard! I'm quoting from
the site referenced. Did you even do the search I suggested? Of course
not. You're happy with your ignorance.
Yes I researched the site, the oddball, erroneous, unauthorized uses of the
term "byte" exist. But the SAE measurement of inches has a better chance to
be converted to metric than the byte has a chance of being other than 8
bits.
When a byte is represented as 9 bits, the 8 bits remain as the data the
extra bit is a parity bit, meaning its a type of wrapper component, not a
literal 9-bit word. If anyone in history combined 3 octal digits into a 9
bit word? its technically not the same.
Can you #$%#read? (that's a rhetorical question, sicne your postings
show that you clearly cannot).
The official C standard is rhetoric?
Retard, you were arguing not a half-day ago that ninety thousand years ago
a "microprocessor" was defined as being a processor that was microcoded
(absolutely wrong). Now you decide that all processors made *today* have
eight-bit bytes, thus a byte is *defined* to be 8-bits.
Thats what it means, by the majority of the industry, and your failure to
provide any examples in the industry show that I was correct
The fact is that you're wrong, twice. In fact you haven't been right
about anything yet. ...but are pig-headed enough to continue on fighting
your 0-n-2 record. Give it up and flip burgers. You'll be a lot less
dangerous in a McD's.
Well then you wont want to know Ive contributed for years to make those
things that launch into orbit whatever they are called, go up and keep the
range safe so they fly up there and spin around or whatever they do.
I dont believe a McD's would hire me with my resume, too overqualified
You are off-the-chart stupid. A 6-bit byte is *still* a byte, whether
it's represented in octal or not. The "originator" of the term "byte" did
*not* specify it as 8-bits. In fact it was IBM that standardized on
8-bits, *after* the term was already in use. Sheesh!
Okay you win, Im sorry to upset you so much, if you want to say a 6 bit byte
is a byte... no, I wont do it, youre wrong, I cant even pretend to concede,
its an 8 bit byte
Well if you knew binary over 100 years ago, you should then of course know
about the Hollerith punched card and what 2629 is.
I like punched card equipment, it was fun to work on with the mechanical
stuff and electrical also
Stupid is as stupid types.
Anyone else reading along will see that you're hopeless and won't go down
the quagmire you call a road. I feel sorry for anyone who has to pick up
your messes.
Well people do say everyone has to work harder when Im around
, but it never
