His name was Pingala, and he was Indian, not German. He lived sometime between the 5th and 2nd century BCE. Germany didn't exist until around 1 to 9CE.
You are probably thinking of Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz (July 1, 1646 - November 14, 1716) but he didn't discover binary. He developed the modern binary system while studying the Chinese I-Ching hexagrams, which are themselves intrinsically binary, and were developed around the same time as Pingala's binary.

What are Reflected codes?
a modified binary code in which sequential binary numbers are represented by expressions that differ only in one bit, to minimize errors.
What makes up 1 bit?
To answer this question, we need to do a quick review of our numbering system. The standard numbers we know and love are usually called "base 10" numbers. Base 10 means that every tenth number adds a new significant digit. In the binary number system, numbers can be represented with a series of zeros and ones. For example: 0,1,2,3,4,5... (base 10 numbers) would be written as: 0,1,10,11,100... (binary numbers) Binary numbers are useful because they can be represented as 1 or 0, TRUE or FALSE or HIGH or LOW in computers (which have a harder time understanding base 10 in hardware). A bit can be thought of a single digit in a binary number.
Why or why not can all numbers be represented in a binary system?
All numbers can be represented in a binary number system. Binary is the base 2 number system, meaning that there 2 possible values per place: 0 and 1. A decimal system allows for 10: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. In a decimal system, you carry out and add a space once you pass 9. Thus, you end up with a 1 in the second place and a 0 in the first. The first space then counts up again. Similarly, a binary system adds a place when it reaches 2. In a decimal system, there are 10x numbers which can be represented by a system with x places. In binary, there are 2x possible numbers. If the number of places is infinite, an infinite number of values can be represented. Negative numbers can be represented in a variety of ways, from a dash as is commonly used in decimal to a 2's complement to a sign bit (i.e. a 1 or a 0 which will tell the reader or the machine the sign of the number).

How many binary bits are necessary to represent 748 different numbers?
Binary bits are necessary to represent 748 different numbers in the sense that binary bits are represented in digital wave form. Binary bits also have an exponent of one.
What are Reflected codes?

The largest number that can be represented by one byte is?
The biggest number that can be represented in one byte is 11111111. Binary numbers have the ability to added together in a fashion similar to decimal numbers.
What is binary hexadecimal and octadecimal numbers?
They are all different ways of representing numbers. For example the number 14 in binary would be 00001110, in octal it would be '16', and in hex would be represented by the '0E'
How is letter a represented in binary number?
Find out how are keyboard letters represented as binary data.
Is 0101111 a binary numbers?
No, 0101111 is not a binary number. Binary numbers are composed of only 0s and 1s, representing the base-2 numeral system. The presence of the leading zero in 0101111 suggests that it may be a binary number, but the inclusion of the digit 2 (represented as '11' in binary) indicates it is not a valid binary representation.
Who discovered binary code?
Jamesgates discovered binary code instringtheory
What decimal number is represented by the binary number?
Every decimal number can be represented by a binary number - and conversely.
