This is used due to the extreme simplicity of binary numbers (take a look at the addition table, and at the multiplication table, for binary numbers). This makes it much simpler to design circuits to do the calculations. Also, it is usually simpler, and safer, to distinguish two different states (for example, a high and a low voltage, to represent 1 and 0, respectively), than to distinguish ten different states.

What languages do computers understand?

They only understand machine language, which most people associate with binary code. But it's more than just binary digits. A certain sequence of some of them equates to a specific instruction for the CPU to execute. You could see this in assembly language.

Why computer use number system?

Computers cannot understand languages. They can only compute data. Because of that, we use binary code because that is pure data.


What does bianry code and programming have in common?

How computers use binary codes?

Computers have zero IQ. Computer can understand or feel "High voltage" or "Low voltage" or you can say, on and off. Computers use '0' for low voltage and '1' for high voltage. by using the conbinations of '0' and '1' all numbers and characters are classified. for example- if you have to write 'A', It is represented in ASCII code assigned to it and then converted to binary, hence use it.


What is Binary Encoder?

A binary encoder is a person who creates a code used to program computers at the most basic level. Claude Shanna developed binary encoding in the 1930s.


How can a Canadian computer talk with a Chinese computer?

Computers transmit information in binary code (also called "Machine Code") and then the computer's Operating System takes that binary code information and displays it in the language that the operator has chosen for it to be displayed it. All computers, regardless of language or country, use the same machine code.
