A byte is commonly used as a unit of storage measurement in computers, regardless of the type of data being stored.
C, for example, defines byte as a storage unit capable of at least being large enough to hold any character of the execution environment (clause 3.5 of the C standard).
The move to an eight-bit byte happened in late 1956, and this size was later adopted and promulgated as a standard by the System/360.

 TeX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If no suitable line break can be found for a line, the system will try to hyphenate a word.
The original version of TeX used a hyphenation algorithm based on a set of rules for the removal of prefixes and suffixes of words, and for deciding if it should insert a break between the two consonants in a pattern of the form vowel–consonant–consonant–vowel (which is possible most of the time).
TeX82 uses a new hyphenation algorithm, designed by Frank Liang in 1983, to assign priorities to breakpoints in letter groups.

 CITES Glossary
Well, prefixes can come at the end, smaller numbers can indicate greater quantities, and trees can grow downward: computing jargon can be pretty unintuitive.
An IP address is four bytes or more properly octets (since they are eight bits, and bytes are not guaranteed to be eight bits); each byte is interpreted as either defining the network address or the host address on that network.
The protocol used determines the way errors are checked, the type of compression, the way the sender indicates the end of the transmission, and the way the receiver indicates that the message has been received.

Proxy by hostname no longer prefixes hostnames with 80- and s443- when the remote hostname uses the standard web ports of 80 for http traffic and 443 for https traffic, although EZproxy recognizes this form to allow existing bookmarks to work properly.
enhances logging support to record the number of bytes transferred and the actual HTTP status code (previously, the status code was always recorded as 200).
These lines would use "student\" or "employee\" to be prefix the username recorded in ezproxy.log.
