The Matrix’s iconic title sequences are made up of falling “digital rain”, which, upon closer inspection, was actually thousands of lines of binary code. Until now, I always assumed this code must ...

Do you know how to read binary codes? Pretty impressive if you do, since they’re a computer’s language. Binary coding is a system of counting that boils down to two digits—one (1) and zero (0) that ...

Optimizations in programming have mostly been associated with more efficient data structures or algorithms. Any optimization that uses hardware resources explicitly is generally considered premature, ...

Those ones and zeros might not look like anything to you, but in binary code the numbers are actually saying “Hello!” Any code that uses just two symbols to represent information is considered binary ...
