Computational Thinking, Algorithms & Programming Computer Science (J 276/02) What is binary? • Binary is the representation of the ‘presence’ of electricity • If present or ‘on’ we use a: 1 • If absent or ‘off’ we use a: 0 • We can use this idea to change 1 and 0 states through the use of logic gates • Logic Gates take inputs and covert them to an output You can see why we need binary, logic and transistors in this video here: https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=Gdqb.
