Binary

Binary is a base 2 number system invented by Gottfried Leibniz where numeric values are represented by different combinations of 0 and 1, also known as OFF or ON. The primary language of computers, binary is still used in today's machines because it's a simple and elegant design. Binary's 0 and 1 method is efficient at detecting an electrical signal's off or on state, or magnetic poles in media like hard drives. It is also the most efficient way to control logic circuits.
