the binary numeral system
In terms of digital information, most data in a computer is represented using binary, which is a system expressed in zeros and ones. Binary code is used to represent the instructions and data that the computer processes. However, there are also other systems and components in a computer that may not be strictly binary, such as analog signals in input/output devices.
It is used to do all the computer coding!
Binary refers to a system which may have one of two states. In computer science the binary numbering system is used where stored and communicated values are represented by 0 and 1. A digital signaling system would be based on an underlying stream of binary numbers so in most cases the two would be used interchangeably. If "binary signaling" where to be taken literally however it would describe a signaling system which communicates two possible states. The flag on a mailbox is a binary communication system, when the flag is up it signals that mail is available for pickup, when it is down there is nothing in the mailbox.
In a computer data is represented as a series of usually binary digits. In the binary system the only numbers/values used are 0 and 1.
Zero and one - either on or off.
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.
binary number system used in computers because computer can understand only binary language as it starts from 0and 1. which makes computer easier.
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.
