Is a quarter of a byte equal to half a nybble?

All I know is that even the smallest micro controllers have enough memory that I don't bother allocating it in anything smaller than KB when I write software.

@SW-User You need one nibble to save a digit 0-9 (4 bits), when using binary-coded decimals (BCD).

@helenS Well then I guess it's good we have various languages to abstract all of that.
