They are the best numbers for computers to use. In simple terms, as computers are electronic they use electronic currents, which can be on or off, like a light switch. 1 and 0, which are the only digits binary has, can be used to represent these two states. Binary forms the basis to all computer memory and operations.

What is digital number system?

It will be asumed that you are refering to the binary number system, which is used in computers and digital devices. A binary number is always either 0 or 1. This is also commonly refered to as "low" or "high". This is in contrast to the decimal number system, where the numbers can vary between 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9.


Why do you learn number system in digital logic?

One of the biggest applications of digital logic is using circuits to perform arithmetical operations. While theoretically, any number system could be used, binary is the most simple to express in terms of digital logic circuits.

Who advocated the binary number system?

The binary system is not used because someone advocated it. It's used because each digital computer is composed of an enormous number of on-off switches. The obvious way of representing 'on-off' in numbers is as one or zero, which is the binary number system. If you ask why couldn't computers be composed of 10-way switches well that's a matter of electronics. It would be much more difficult to build those than the two-way switches.
