1 of 2

The computer is an electronic machine that uses electricity to store data. Because there are only two states of electricity: either ON or OFF. We use the binary system to represent them---1\textbf{1} indicates On\textit{On} and 0\textbf{0} indicates OFF\textit{OFF}. Therefore, any data stored in our computer; be it an image, audio, or text; are get converted to binary and then stored as electrical signals.
