kibibyte
(redirected from Kibioctet)

See NIST binary.

(unit)kibibyte - The official ISOame for 1024 bytes, to distinguish it from 1000 bytes which they call a kilobyte. "Mebibyte", "Gibibyte", etc, are prefixes for other powers of 1024. Although this new naming standard has been widely reported in 2003, it seems unlikely to catch on.
