How many bit combinations are there in a byte?

Answer Posted / arjun

This has to be the easiest technical question for any
programmer...

A Byte is made of 8 Bits, so the number of combination for
Byte would be 2^8.

However, if asked the maximum number represented then it
would be (2^8)-1.

Surely, if you can't answer this you should seriously think
about changing your profession.
