+
+byte
+====
+
+The ``byte`` type stores a 1-byte (8-bit) unsigned integer number,
+from 0 to 255.
+
+.. warning::
+
+   The ``byte`` type is provided for compatibility with Arduino.
+   However, it is a non-standard extension.  The standard C++ type for
+   storing an 8-bit unsigned integer is ``unsigned char``; we
+   recommend using that instead.  (Your code will still work on an
+   Arduino).
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+::
+
+        byte b = 134;
