Best Answer

The binary number system (base 2) is the basis for computer math and operations. Computer circuitry can represent two states (On/Off, Positive Voltage/Negative Voltage, Magnetized North/Magnetized South, etc). Any engineering which deals with the internal workings of a computer, or transmitting data to/from a computer would need to represent the data in binary (base 2) number system.
