Computer Science Basics: Binary

We use computers every day, but how often do we stop and think, “How do they do what they do?” This video series explains some of the core concepts behind computer science.

We hope you enjoy!

All this time, and NO ONE told me, ever, what bit was short for. Thank you.

Finally a simple yet straightforward explanation of how bits and computer works. Other videos are complex to understand my IQ lol

0:50 This explanation is enough for learning about Bits or Binary. His single explanation makes us understand a lot about binary numbers. He is 100% correct.

Basic.Concise.Easy to follow and understand. Great work! Thank you.👍

[nivatharan]

Thanks a lot 👍 we expected within a long time for this video

[mammon]

THANK YOU SO MUCH I HAD TO MAKE A VIDEO WITHIN 3 MIINS THE OTHER VIDEOS I WATCHED WERE OF MORE THAN 7 MINS THIS HELPED ME IN MY COMPUTER PROJECT WORK.

Superb! Nicely explained the basic concept of Binary. Thank you very much.

[dils]

this is animated very well.
well done. 👍

1:44 Actually, that's wrong! the computer can't use decimal because transistors work as switches to open or close voltage flow from transistor to other

Thanks sir your the best
I understand everything you thought me thxx

[motoporn]

This the first time i understand binary.. Credit for simplifying

[upendrathakuri]

wow..amazing video sir..
am waiting for your next video..
upload it fast sir..
from which software did u edited or make this types of videos?sir

[vzkorkj]

Like a neuron firing? It's either on or off? (or at rest but thats besides the point)

Would you explain how video broken down into digit, it's not text. Not even connected into ascii stuffs

[janajanhajsu]

im gussing the weight of a decimal or octal number represent the number of bits in it cool !!

you really do deserve a million subscribers...best of luck #gcflearnfree.org

Oh what an awful dream 1s and 0s everywhere yeah and I thought I saw a 2

Not really "decimal" so much as base 10, but that's a whole other can of worms, so I can understand simplifying that for an audience that most likely is used to only thinking in base 10 anyways.
