In computer science, a “word” is a fundamental unit of data that a computer’s processor can handle in a single operation. The size of a word, typically measured in bits (e.g., 16-bit, 32-bit, 64-bit), is a key characteristic of a computer’s architecture. It determines the amount of data the processor can process at once, influencing the system’s overall performance and memory addressing capabilities. A larger word size generally allows for faster data processing and the ability to address more memory. Word size affects the size of integers the processor can directly work with, the range of memory addresses, and the efficiency of data transfer between the processor and memory.
