Why computer understands binary language?

Answer 1

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. Data space, and processing power was very weak. As such computer engineers and designers needed the easiest way to transmit data. The way to accomplish this was to use a binary system.

Answer 2

0 and 1 in binary language represent Off or On Off=0 On=1 so for example lets say what you see as the "A" key stroke on your monitor, in circuitry world your computer will see it as 00001001 <-(As an example) so the power switch on the back of your computer (if there is one) 0 or 1 off or on.

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

Computer do not actually understand anything. They are being run on few electrical impulses, tiny wires. So, computer exactly understands the number in exactly the same way that lamp understands the state of light switch.

Answer 4

The word "understand" is a bit misleading here; computer's usually accept input as decimal, and show results as decimal numbers again. It is internally that they do most of their processing in binary, because they were so designed. And the reason they were so designed is because it is simpler to build computers that work with binary. For example, look at the multiplication table for binary numbers, and compare it to that for decimal numbers.

Answer 5

The computer doesn't really "understand" anything; it blindly operates on them. For example, an AND circuit will take two bits, and produce another bit as a result, according to the AND truth table - but this is not done with any "understanding", it is just electrical currents controlling other currents through special circuits.

Answer 6

because 0 and 1 is on and of
