How Binary Works
Binary is a base-2 number system using only 0s and 1s. Computers use binary because electronic circuits have two states: on (1) and off (0). Each digit in binary is called a "bit", and 8 bits make a "byte".
ASCII Encoding
ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) assigns a number to each character. For example:
- A = 65 = 01000001
- a = 97 = 01100001
- 0 = 48 = 00110000
- Space = 32 = 00100000
Common Binary Values
- Hello = 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111
- World = 01010111 01101111 01110010 01101100 01100100
- 01 = 00110000 00110001
