Question

What is the computer memory to store a single character of data?

Answer 1

You can represent 256 values in 8 bits though ASCII uses only 7 of the bits for 128 different characters. Some of the alternative mappings use all 8 bits. If you need more than 256 characters in your alphabet then you can use unicode which takes between 1 and 4 bytes per character.
