1MB = 1024 bytes

Microsoft just launched its beginner developer learning center.

Good intention but bad implementation. Wonder who actually prepared this tutorial.

 (could not find a report button on the site. Probably one of the MSFT guys can pass the info to the guys incharge)

I almost thought there is no problem until I looks closely.

It is 1MB = 1024 KB = 2^20 Bytes

I think the problem is the table is rather confusing and hard to understand.

It should be this way.

1 Byte = 8 Bits.

======================================================

1 KB = 1024 (2^10) Bytes

1 MB = 1024 (2^10) KB

and so on. So the reader can see the unit progression, which is constant 1024.

1MB = 2^20 Bytes is like, WTH, I can't understand it.
