Everything has to be binary encoded since it's the only language natively understood by a binary computer. Even ASCII character codes must be binary encoded. However, it's not clear how you would use ASCII to perform a calculation since the American Standard Code for Information Interchange is a character encoding scheme that maps 7-bit binary codes to glyph bitmaps according to the current ASCII code page. You can certainly use the encodings in calculations, but not the characters themselves, because the digits '0' through '9' in the ASCII table do not map to the values 0 through 9. In order to translate an ASCII digit to the value it represents, you first have to subtract 48 from the ASCII character value. From the computer's perspective, determining the actual value represented by the character '7' requires the binary calculation 00110111 - 00110000 = 00001110. In hexadecimal, this equates to 0x37 - 0x30 = 0x07, because 0x37 maps to character '7' in the ASCII table, while 0x30 maps to '0'. Thus you could also say '7' - '0' = 7.
Digital computers use binary representations because it is by far the simplest representation to implement. Computers use various methods to represent a binary digit (a bit), such as switches that are either on or off, or capacitors that can be filled or drained of electric charge via transistors. The more rapidly it can switch an individual bit between these two states the more quickly it will operate, but it must also be able to "read" the state just as rapidly. With only two possible states this is extremely simple because the computer only needs to test if a signal (of any kind) is above or below a given threshold. If we were to attempt to do the same thing with a decimal system, the computer would need to differentiate between 10 possible states using 9 thresholds per digit. In binary, the computer can easily differentiate between 16 possible states using just 4 bits (and therefore 4 thresholds). Thus binary is clearly the more efficient way to represent digital information.
- No potential (0 Volts)
- Potential (typically between 3V and 5V, depending on the processor architecture)
Therefore, a digital computer can "understand" only two values - zero and one, yes and no, electrical potential and no electrical potential. That is called the binary system.
Analogue computers (see the related link) are an entirely different story.
The oldest computer language is machine code and all computer languages are binary encoded. It's unavoidable on binary machines.
Your question is actually flawed...binary system is not used in digital systems... Rather, systems using binary numbers only are called digital systems... It is common knowledge that, digital electronics employs just 2 states (or rather numbers, as mathematicians put it...) the two numbers being '0' and '1'. Obviously, it is easier to design electronic systems dealing with just 2 states...It's majorly this ease, that led to such exponential development in the field of digital electronics. It ios also cheaper to make or produce such systems...
binary language is the natural language of computer
zero is important in computer because computer runs on binary language that is 0s and 1s it means that computer is off
Yes because there is no real practical use for a binary tree other than something to teach in computer science classes. A binary tree is not used in the real world, a "B tree" is.
Binary number system ,which has only two digits 0 and 1.
Computers use binary numbers. This is ones and zeros.
Binary is the language of computers and is advantageous because it is simple, efficient, and easily interpreted by machines. It allows for precise representation of data and is essential for performing complex calculations and operations in computer systems.
Binary Number 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.
Everywhere. All computers use binary systems.
The addition and multiplication table is much simpler. Also, on a computer it is easier to distinguish two different states than ten different states. For these reasons, modern computers do most of their calculations internally in binary.
In the context of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), binary refers to systems that have two states or options (e.g., on/off, yes/no), while ternary refers to systems that have three states or options (e.g., high/medium/low). The choice between binary and ternary systems depends on the complexity of the task and the clarity required for user interaction.
By observing the orbital motion of binary star systems, astronomers can apply Kepler's laws and measure the period and separation of the stars. By combining this data with the stars' luminosity and temperature, they can determine the masses of the stars using equations of motion and gravitational attraction.

If there was no binary, there would be no computer.
