'Yes/No' type systems have been used for millennia eg in India, China. I think Leibniz was the first modern mathematician to write explicitly about '1-0' in the 18th Century, followed by George Boole's paper on logic systems (1854?) which eventually became known as Boolean algebra. "There are 10 types of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who don't"

A.N.D. Leibniz defined the binary number system.
A binary system is a special type of a number system. The binary system uses only two digits, other number systems use more.
What is called the Binary number system. on and off is a binary state.
BIT means binary digit. So it is binary.
There are two digits in the binary number system. 0 and 1

Because if it were not, then the name of the system would have to be changed.
There is no decimal number for the binary number 13 because 13 cannot be a binary number.
The binary system is the name given to the base-2 number system.
The base-2 (binary) system is simpler than a system based on any higher integer. In a way, it is the simplest possible number system.
The only numbers involved in the binary number system are one and 0. They are called binary numbers because it relates to exponents of the number two.
