What is bit datatype and what's the information that can be stored inside a bit column?..

Answer / sd

Bit datatype is used to store boolean information like 1 or
0 (true or false). Untill SQL Server 6.5 bit datatype could
hold either a 1 or 0 and there was no support for NULL. But
from SQL Server 7.0 onwards, bit datatype can represent a
third state, which is NULL.
