.. highlight:: cpp
.. _arduino-byte:
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;
