A code of representing more complex data from a sequence comprised of two components. In computing, these two ''states'' are symbolized by zeroes ''( 0 )'' and ones ''( 1 )''.

Binary code works by applying exponentially increasing numerical values to each item in the sequence. A binary sequence will typically have a uniform delimit, which in computer technology is typically every eight. A sequence of eight zeroes and ones is known as a [[byte]], and each item in a [[byte]] is known as a [[bit]]. One byte can represent up to 256 states (ranging 0 to 255) which are typically equated to a character on the [[ASCII]] ''(American Standard Code for Information Interchange)'' table.

A sequence of eight zeroes and ones is known as a [[byte]], and each item in a [[byte]] is known as a [[bit]]. One byte can represent one of up to 256 states (ranging from 0 to 255) which are typically equated to characters on the [[ASCII]] ''(American Standard Code for Information Interchange)'' table.
