Why do Computers use Binary

3 things you learned

  • The higher the voltage the higher the sound pressure, the lower the voltage the lower the sound pressure
  • Sound is air being compressed and pulled apart
  • A way to represent the numbers we want to add is encoding and 2 wires for voltages are used to transfer the information

2 things you don't understand

  • Cutting the range intro fractions and being unsure whether the reader will be able to understand it
  • How could they cut the range into 2 pieces to encode?

1 thing you would like to know more about

  • Why they send voltages in one digit at a time
