What is Binary?

Binary is a base-2 numeral system that uses only two digits: 0 and 1. Computers use binary to represent all data internally.

How It Works

Each character is converted to its ASCII value, then represented as an 8-bit binary number. For example:

  • A = 65 = 01000001
  • B = 66 = 01000010
  • Hello = 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111
