Units of measurement of the amount of information are the basics of computer science that everyone who starts their career in the IT field should know. Without understanding these terms, it won't be easy to understand the essence of programming languages and coding. What are the differences? There are only two basic units of measurement of information, the rest of which are derivatives. Having understood the base, further study will go like clockwork. Before moving on to studying the units of measurement of the amount of information in computer science, it is necessary to understand the concept of "information" itself.

The term "information" is fundamental in computer science and encompasses several key components:

New knowledge, including previously unknown facts and data.
Humans meet information about various objects and events in the environment. These ones improve an individual's possibilities and level of erudition.
Data regarding some objects and events helps reduce ambiguity regarding their qualities and essence, aiding decision-making.

"Information" is a term used across all scientific disciplines, and it includes standardized units of measurement for quantifying the amount of information. The main properties of information include social significance, importance, usefulness, wide availability, sufficient volume, clarity, accuracy, certainty, reliability, compliance with the truth, and social suitability. The world around us is filled with a variety of information processes that continuously replace one another. People receive information from their surroundings, perceive it through their senses, and process it. Based on this processing, they make decisions that when acted upon, influence and alter the external environment.
