How computers speak in just two words!
A light switch can only be in two positions: ON or OFF.
Computers are the same!
Inside every computer are billions of tiny switches called "transistors" that are either ON (1) or OFF (0).
This is called binary - "two states"!
In regular counting (decimal), after 9 comes 10.
In binary, after 1 comes 10!
0 = 0
1 = 1
10 = 2
11 = 3
100 = 4
With 8 bits (one byte), you can represent 256 different values!
🔤 Letters: A=65, B=66, etc.
🎨 Colors: RGB values from 0-255
