They understand machine code, i.e. Binary Digits.
it consists of two numbers : 0 and 1
yes
In it's simplest terms, a computer is actually a digital binary system. It is a very large number of containers or "bits" which are either numbered one ( for on) or zero (for off). As an electrical charge stores these alternating bit values, it is a digital system.
In terms of digital information, most data in a computer is represented using binary, which is a system expressed in zeros and ones. Binary code is used to represent the instructions and data that the computer processes. However, there are also other systems and components in a computer that may not be strictly binary, such as analog signals in input/output devices.
Counting, using the binary system. Logic 1 and 0 representing electric current on and off.
The binary number system inside the electronics of a computer is generally represented by a high or a low voltage, a charged or uncharged capacitor, or sometimes even a switch that is on or off. That these electronics are generally in either one or the other state, the binary system is the simplest.
Binary is what digital computers operate on, yes.Most use binary, but some have used decimal using various encodings. Some decimal machines were:ENIACUNIVAC IUNIVAC IIIBM NORCIBM 702IBM 705IBM 7010IBM 7070 familyIBM 7080IBM 1401 familyIBM 1620etc.
binary system
Binary refers to a system which may have one of two states. In computer science the binary numbering system is used where stored and communicated values are represented by 0 and 1. A digital signaling system would be based on an underlying stream of binary numbers so in most cases the two would be used interchangeably. If "binary signaling" where to be taken literally however it would describe a signaling system which communicates two possible states. The flag on a mailbox is a binary communication system, when the flag is up it signals that mail is available for pickup, when it is down there is nothing in the mailbox.
Computer programs are categorized into system and application software. To make a complete computer system, programs (software) works hand in hand with hardware.
