Bītus[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] (nārius dĭgĭtus, verbum amalgamatum[1][9][10]) vel bītum[3] vel bīt[3] (indeclinabile) est singula nota numeri in systemate numerico binario in computationibus electronicis adhibito.

Telarium Bouchonianum (1725), apud Museum artium negotiorumque(fr)(d) Lutetiae ostentum.

Redactio datorum in discretos bitos primum per tesseras foratas(en)(d) a Basilio Bouchon(fr)(d) et Ioanne Baptista Falcon(fr)(d) inventas anno 1732 explorata est. Eadem excogitatio anno 1804 a Iosepho Maria Jacquard(fr)(d) (per eius “telarium(en)(d)”) perficiebatur, ac postea a Simone Korsakov(en)(d), Carolo Babbage, et Hermanno Hollerith(en)(d) adhibita est. Simili machinatione, formā taeniae foratae(en)(d), primi opifices officinarum IBM usi sunt ad data servanda.

In iis exemplis, foramina et eorum absentia (illic ubi foramen exspectabatur) utramque notam numeri in systemate binario repraesentabant.

Alphabetum Morsianum (1837) primaque instrumenta teletypica(en)(d) (1887) et bitis usa sunt ad notitias mittendas.

Anno 1928 Radulphus Hartley(en)(d) suasit ut logarithmus basi 2 eligeretur mensio informationis.[11] Verbo biti primum Claudius Elwood Shannon anno 1948 in suo commentario disceptatorio “A Mathematical Theory of Communication(en)(d)” usus est.[12][13][14] Ipse originem vocabuli Ioanni Wilder Tukey(en)(d) attribuit, qui die 9 Ianuarii 1947 notam intra Bell Labs divulgandam scripserat ubi verbo bit locutionem Anglicam binary information digit (i.e. ‘nota numeri informationis binariae’) compendii fecit.[15]

Cum ars informatica progrederetur, octobitus(en)(d) vel octetus (i.e. octonio[16] bitorum) factus est numerus minimus bitorum qui in quacumque serie datorum computatralium exsistere possunt, ideo in plerisque architecturis computatralibus octoni biti sunt minima unitas memoriae allocabilis.

In redactione(en)(d) ASCII(en)(d),[17] octonio (septenio + unibitus vacuus) adhibetur ad singulum characterem repraesentandum. In historia computatrorum aliae compages quoque exploratae sunt.[18][19]

In theoria informationis(en)(d), singulus bitus entropiam cuiuscumque fortuitae quantitatis variabilis binariae (seu quae aequali probabilitate uni aut zero tantum congruere potest) mētītur.[20] Eadem etiam est informatio acquisita cum valor variabilis fiat notus.[21][22] In honorem Claudii Elwood Shannon mathematici Michiganiensis, bitus ut unitas informationis etiam shannon appellatur.[23]

Biti indicantur litterā minusculā “b”, quae non confundenda est cum littera “B” capitanea, octonionem bitorum (Anglice byte) indicante.

In redactione in notas ASCII, octonio bitorum (septenio + unibitus vacuus) adhibetur ad singulum characterem repraesentandum. Characteres a zerensimo ad tricensimum secundum, una cum charactere centensimo vicensimo septimo, sunt metacharacteres – i.e. invisibiles notae quae peculiares iussūs praescribunt (e.g. de tono emittendo, de versu finiendo, de spatio creando, et cetera).

  18. Buchholz, Iun. 1956, cap. 7, “The Shift Matrix”: “ Most important, from the point of view of editing, will be the ability to handle any characters or digits, from 1 to 6 bits long.
    Figure 2 shows the Shift Matrix to be used to convert a 60-bit word, coming from Memory in parallel, into characters, or ‘bytes’ as we have called them, to be sent to the Adder serially. The 60 bits are dumped into magnetic cores on six different levels. Thus, if a 1 comes out of position 9, it appears in all six cores underneath. Pulsing any diagonal line will send the six bits stored along that line to the Adder. The Adder may accept all or only some of the bits.
    Assume that it is desired to operate on 4 bit decimal digits, starting at the right. The 0-diagonal is pulsed first, sending out the six bits 0 to 5, of which the Adder accepts only the first four (0–3). Bits 4 and 5 are ignored. Next, the 4 diagonal is pulsed. This sends out bits 4 to 9, of which the last two are again ignored, and so on.
    It is just as easy to use all six bits in alphanumeric work, or to handle bytes of only one bit for logical analysis, or to offset the bytes by any number of bits. All this can be done by pulling the appropriate shift diagonals. An analogous matrix arrangement is used to change from serial to parallel operation at the output of the adder.
  19. Buchholz, Iul. 1956, cap. 5, “Input-Output”: “ 60 is a multiple of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Hence bytes of length from 1 to 6 bits can be packed efficiently into a 60-bit word without having to split a byte between one word and the next. If longer bytes were needed, 60 bits would, of course, no longer be ideal. With present applications, 1, 4, and 6 bits are the really important cases.
    With 64-bit words, it would often be necessary to make some compromises, such as leaving 4 bits unused in a word when dealing with 6-bit bytes at the input and output. However, the LINK Computer can be equipped to edit out these gaps and to permit handling of bytes which are split between words.”
