Learn how computers think with 0s and 1s!
🤔 Binary is the language computers understand. It only uses two digits: 0 and 1.
Think of it like a light switch - it's either OFF (0) or ON (1)!
Computers use billions of tiny switches called transistors. Each one can be on or off, creating all the games, videos, and websites you love!
Each position is worth double the one before it (from right to left):
Click the bits to toggle them on (1) or off (0). Watch the decimal number change!
💡 Challenge: Can you make these numbers?
• Your age • Today's date • 100 • 200 • 255 (maximum!)
💡 How it works: Each letter has a number (A=65, B=66, a=97, etc.). That number is converted to binary!
Try typing your name and see it in binary! Then copy the binary and convert it back.
