They are the best numbers for computers to use. In simple terms, as computers are electronic they use electronic currents, which can be on or off, like a light switch. 1 and 0, which are the only digits binary has, can be used to represent these two states. Binary forms the basis to all computer memory and operations.
The binary number system is used in computers to represent data. All numbers can be represented with two digits in a binary number system. The two digits can be (no current) zero and (current) one.
The simplicity of the binary system allows for extraordinary complexity. The binary system is also simple to use and understand, since there are only two states in the binary system, on and off.
It will be asumed that you are refering to the binary number system, which is used in computers and digital devices. A binary number is always either 0 or 1. This is also commonly refered to as "low" or "high". This is in contrast to the decimal number system, where the numbers can vary between 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9.
One of the biggest applications of digital logic is using circuits to perform arithmetical operations. While theoretically, any number system could be used, binary is the most simple to express in terms of digital logic circuits.
Binary numbers belong to Binary number system. Binary System consists of only 2 digits (known as bits) 0 & 1. Any no. from decimal number system can be converted to binary number system. Binary numbers are widely used in design of various digital gadgets & computers. Following are some decimal no.s converted into binary numbers. Decimal number Binary number 0 0 1 1 2 10 3 11 4 100 5 101 6 110
BIT means binary digit. So it is binary.
There are two digits in the binary number system. 0 and 1

it consists of two numbers : 0 and 1
Zero and one - either on or off.
The numbers used in the binary number system are 1 and 0

The binary system is not used because someone advocated it. It's used because each digital computer is composed of an enormous number of on-off switches. The obvious way of representing 'on-off' in numbers is as one or zero, which is the binary number system. If you ask why couldn't computers be composed of 10-way switches well that's a matter of electronics. It would be much more difficult to build those than the two-way switches.
