Word
A word is a unit of data that typically consists of a fixed number of bits or bytes, used to represent a single piece of information in computing systems.

Current Use
In modern computing, a word's size varies depending on the architecture (e.g., 16-bit, 32-bit, 64-bit), and it is fundamental in defining data transfer, processing, and storage operations within digital systems.
Zip 100
Zip 100 is a data storage unit used to measure the capacity of storage devices, equivalent to 100 bytes of digital information.
History/Origin

Current Use
Today, Zip 100 is rarely used in practical applications; it serves mainly as a historical reference or in specialized technical discussions within data storage and digital measurement contexts.
