Byte Values
Byte values have the type Byte, which corresponds to an
unsigned 8-bit integer ranging from 0 to 255. It is generally recommended to
use Int8 instead of Byte when performing math
operations, however, Bytes are used in API methods for
Text and Path that deal with raw binary data, such
as Path.read_bytes() and Text.utf8(). Byte literals
can be written using the Byte() constructor:
Byte(5).
