conveyed or processed per unit of time. e.g. 8 bits/sec.
(1.3) Bandwidth - ANSWER- Transmission capacity measure by bit rate
, (1.3) Latency - ANSWER- Time it takes for a bit to travel from its
sender to its receiver.

understand.
(1.7) Code (verb) - ANSWER- To write code, or to write instructions for
a computer.
