Free Documentation Base - Docs.eu.org Online

Posted by timothy on from the expanding-the-knowledge-universe dept.

YannH writes "Docs.eu.org is a free documentation portal, trying to gather and to distribute computer science free documentation; we try to stay as open as possible on documentations we include. We gathered an amount of 500 Mo of documentation (linux, programming languages, free software philosophy, and so), some of them are standards that you can find everywhere, some other are more rarely referenced; hope this help. Enjoy :)"

    Can you give an example of a byte being something other than 8 bits?

    In the upper physical layer of many serial communications protocols, a byte is 10 bits (2 framing and 8 data). But because that's still 8-bit bytes in a sense, here are more examples: 9-bit bytes 6-bit bytes
