I’m mildly curious, which spelling do you prefer, in the word’s computer context?
I’ve been using ‘nybble’ a lot in code comments this past few days. But from associated googling on these coding topics I have become aware that ‘nibble’ might be much more common.
Personally, I strongly favour the ‘y’, on the grounds that the word is a derivative of ‘byte’ not ‘bite’.
And yes I know, it is not an important question, most people just won’t care. That’s why I’m posting in Chit Chat.
