Go to bed

Here's something that's worth realising: This post actually exists. Really. It's stored on some server and is made of little ones and zeroes. In total it is comprised of:

a) 56
b) 456
c) More than 456

ones and zeroes. There isn't a prize,

C) More than 456.

A 1 or a 0 is a bit, and there are 8 of these in a byte.

The post is stored as html, which is basically plain text ASCII with tags. ASCII uses 1 byte per character, and therefore your post (including html tags) would have to be 57 characters long to be comprised of 456 1's and 0's.
