Binary

Binary is usually called the Base-2 System. Binary consists of only 0s and 1s, meaning that there are only 2 digits, 0 and 1.
Binary is usually used in computers, as a replacement for base-16, or hexadecimal.
Here is the table for what a number is in: Binary, Decimal and Hexadecimal.

Binary: 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, 1001, 1010
Decimal: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Hexadecimal: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A

Here's something:
Hexadecimal: 1BE15DC
Decimal: 29234652
Binary: 1101111100001010111011100
Base-36: HELLO
Person1: You use Binary???
Person2: it's all just 1s and 0s baby

Binary

Binary is a number system that of which allows all electronic devices to function. You may be asking, "But why? Why not just a normal number system?" well, binary is the easiest to work with, as it is a base 2 number system, making it so that you can represent the state of something with those 2 numbers: 1 for existent / in a certain state, 0 for nonexistent / not in a certain state. Binary represents everything. For example: the device you're reading this on: is it powered on? Yes. Are you a total BOSS at life? I sure don't know, but you do. Doesn't matter. Binary can almost always represent literally everything around you. HOWEVER: sometimes, you'll run into problems like: "Is my chocolate milk empty?" it could be partially empty, but then the answer would be "No", which is 0. It should be somewhere near 0.5. Look at it this way: you ask the same question with a different polarity (AKA say "okay, is it NOT full then?) it would then STILL be 0. So, then you write down 0.5, however that CANNOT be represented as binary. This is one of the problems with binary and normally why working with binary is so hard. This is why "fuzzy logic" exists. It's where multiple binary bits work together to make a "fuzzy bit" (not an actual name) and can represent things like 0.5. There isn't much else to show here, so to wrap it up on a high note, we have this:
Give someone (who asked a question that of which the answer to was 4) the middle finger. CONGRADULATIONS! Binary just gave you an excuse to give the middle finger to someone! You may be confused, but "4" can be represented on your hand IN BINARY via the middle finger.
