i think its called binary.
In The Middle Of 19th Century ,an English mathematician George Boole developed rules for manipulations of binary variables, known as Boolean Algebra. This is the basis of all digital systems like computers, calculators etc. 0and 0=0 0 and 1=0 1 and 0=0 1 and 1=1. He did not develop his Boolean Algebra until he became a professor in Ireland. (Cork I think.) There is a well developed article in wikipedia.org.
Digital
There is no such difference. All digital computers have elements that basically work with two different states; these are commonly called 1s and 0s, sometimes "true"and "false". But there is no difference in this sense between IBM and Apple.
Binary
Nano
Most digital computers today do.
In digital electronics "1" generally means on," 0 " means off. This simple system is the basis of all electronics that male up computers and the uses of digital signal analysis. All the data in computers can be broken down to one and zero.
A device that works on the idea that something is on or off. In computers 0=off 1=on. The abacus was considered digital because the beads were either on of off.
Counting, using the binary system. Logic 1 and 0 representing electric current on and off.
Digital computers are purely digital, i.e. they use digital(electronic) means to process data. Hybrid computers conversely use both digital and analog technologies.
If the values are only 0 and 1 then the signal is digital.
Because the first, second, and third generation computers were also digital computers.
When computers went digital and moved into the modern times they have been running on Ones and Zeros. What we humans call the number 10 to a computer is 00001010. The computers way allows it to do calculations very quickly, very fast simply by the presents (1) or absents (0) of electricity.
Ans. Difference between a digital and hybrid computer:Digital Computers:These are general purpose computers. They accept data in the form of discrete digits (0 and 1). They have large storage capacity. They come in many sizes and shapes. They are generally used in every field of life. They are slow but accurate as compared to analog computers.Hybrid Computers:Hybrid computers combine best features of analog and digital computers i.e. speed, accuracy reliability etc. They are special purpose computers, which are fast and accurate. Hybrid computers help the user to handle both analog and digital type of data.SHOAIBBILALShoaibbilal64@yahoo.com
Included in this industry are digital computers, analog computers, and hybrid digital/analog computers.
It has to do with the way computers are built at their core. At the base level it all comes down to on or off. Binary is perfect for that. 0 = off, 1 = on.
At this time, no, most computers are digital. However from the 1930s through the 1960s analog computers probably did outnumber digital computers as they were generally smaller and less expensive than digital computers.
