It's the easiest means of handling all processes. The 0 and 1 generally do not represent actual numbers unless it really is a binary number string. Generally 0 and 1 relate to boolean values. 0 being false, and 1 being true. Back before massive hard drives, the internet and all the things we now take for granted.
