Yes, it does, the word "byte" is an important word of
the C language standard.
C99, 3.6, says about "byte":
"byte
"addressable unit of data storage large enough to hold any
member of the basic character set of the execution environment".
...
"NOTE 2: A byte is composed of a contiguous sequence of bits,
the number of which is implementation-defined. (...)"
The size of a byte in C need not be 8 bits. The size in bits is
implementation-defined. It *might* be 8 bits. The minimum sizes
of types can be checked by looking up definitions in "limits.h".
C's *sizeof* operator is defined in terms of bytes.
