The binary system is a numerical system that uses only two digits, 0 and 1, to represent information and perform operations.
It is fundamental in digital computing and electronics, as computers store and process data in binary form. Each position in a binary number represents a power of 2, facilitating electronic operations.
The combination of zeros and ones in binary sequences allows for the representation of data and the execution of logical operations, forming the basis of the machine language in modern computer science.
