Megabyte (10^6 Bytes)
A megabyte (MB) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,000,000 bytes (10^6 bytes).
History/Origin
The term 'megabyte' was introduced in the 1960s with the advent of computer storage, initially representing 1,048,576 bytes (2^20), but the decimal definition of 1,000,000 bytes became common in the context of data storage and marketing.
Current Use
Today, the megabyte is used to measure data size in contexts such as file sizes, storage capacities, and data transfer rates, with the decimal definition (10^6 bytes) being standard in most commercial and marketing applications.
Megabyte
A megabyte (MB) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,048,576 bytes or 10^6 bytes in decimal notation, commonly used to measure data storage capacity.
History/Origin
The term 'megabyte' originated in the 1960s with the advent of computer storage and data measurement. Initially, it was based on powers of two (1,048,576 bytes), but in the late 20th century, it also came to be used in decimal form (1,000,000 bytes) for marketing storage devices.
Current Use
Today, megabytes are used to quantify data sizes in computing, such as file sizes, storage capacities, and data transfer rates. The binary definition (1,048,576 bytes) is often used in computing contexts, while the decimal definition (1,000,000 bytes) is common in marketing and consumer electronics.
