Binary Consisting Standing Impulse Things Parts Double Involving

word binary
definition (1) Consisting of two things or parts; double. (2) Involving a choice between two alternatives.
eg_sentence The Milky Way contains numerous binary stars, each consisting of two stars orbiting each other.
explanation Binary has many uses, most of them in technical terms. Almost all computer software, for example, is written in binary code, which uses only two digits, 0 and 1, 0 standing for a low-voltage impulse (“off”) and 1 standing for a high-voltage impulse (“on”). All information is kept in this form. The word “HELLO,” for example, looks like this: 1001000 1000101 1001100 1001100 1001111
