Why Do Computers Use 1s and 0s? Binary and Transistors Explained.

A short explanation of binary.
Upon reviewing the finished video I realized I made a mistake in some of my vocabulary. A byte can represent a number up to 255 but it can actually represent 256 different VALUES, as 0 is a value in and of itself. Rerecording and reanimating would be a painful process, so forgive me this mistake.

    You mentioned at 4:10 that a byte represents 255 values. Just to be clear, it represents 256 values. The highest value represented is 255 but 0 is included; therefore, 256 total values are represented. EDIT: I now see you have mentioned this in the video description. I'll keep this comment up for those that didn't read the description.

    Hah, you were even expecting to understand this by a lecture! that's a good joke. Usually those people you call as a teacher don't even know the concept of how it works forget about explaining to you. This goes even further as they were not even being taught properly in their time, then the cycle goes on. And this is what happens when you make education as a profit-driven organization. they are more focused on payment & exams rather than explaining simple concepts & driving you towards a real profession. ...Germany comes in mind right ! free education...

    An important reason for why "computers" (and digital communications) use only the two states 0 and 1, is that it is the simple possible distinction you can make between the possible continuous values of an (analog) signal. There used to be good and bad VGA (analog image transmission) cables that would add more or less noise to the analog image signal, giving you a better or worse image in the end. With digital transmission, unless a significant amount of noise is exceeded, the 0 or 1 that is sent will be interpreted correctly as 0 or 1 by the other end, even in more noisy situations. 0 and 1 sound the same to both ends. As soon as there are more possibilities, the potential for error and misclassification increases.

  • @AuthenticWaves
    @AuthenticWaves4 жыл бұрын

    Nice, recommendable video. The initial choice of a two state base is related to logic states as well as to digits. Without being a hardware specialist, I believe that It also minimizes errors. For a given maximal voltage, increasing the number of states (to 10 for example) would probably raise the number of errors in a linear fashion. Also, It would be an overkill for representing true/false states.

    Best machine tutorial ever. This is what am looking for. I start programming and i understand it crystal clear. It is so full of quality content and interesting. I literally turn off all device in house and focus whole 7 minute on tutorial is is interesting when it is put together in simple human logic without fansy abstraction like proffesors do where you spend huge amount of mind energy just to decode abstraction they always do. As comparison you talk about machine code and this tutorial is in human code. No aditional mind energy needed to understand. So good thank you

    It might be useful to just think of computers as only capable of storing and processing boolean values. When it comes down to single transistors, your voltage in each wire is either low or high. We interpret booleans as numbers in our minds because it's just easier to represent them that way, and since boolean have 2 states, using a base 2 system makes the translation the most direct.

    For quiet a while I had the misconception that binary was some magical computer language that only meant “on” or “off” and with enough “ons” and “offs” in a specific pattern you can get a meaning. Because that is how it was taught to me. Once I realized it’s just a number system, Computer Science made a lot more sense to me.

    Im currently just starting out on a HNC computing course and the introduction of binary into my life really stumped me but this video explained it all perfectly. Only thing I had to further research was why you had to minus the one when understanding up to what number binary bytes can represent e.g. 2^8 - 1

    @@H3Vtux That's one youtuber who is introducing more confusion. Nothing is gained by suggesting "two" to "nine" no longer exist and that numbers go "zero", "one", then "ten". People learn in grade school that numbers are independent of the objects that they represent and the symbols used to represent them. We know that other languages have different names for the same values, that's not helping his case. Using the word names for a given value is the simplest way to be unambiguous about the value we really want. The only reason to do this is to be able to refer to a specific symbol in a specific column, in which case, it's not actually the whole value we want anyway. Just say the symbol. 0xaa55 | 10101010 01010101, 0o777. "hex 'a' 'a' 'five' 'five' or 'one' 'zero' 'one' 'zero' 'one' 'zero' 'one' 'zero', 'zero' 'one' 'zero' 'one' 'zero' 'one' 'zero' 'one' , octal 'seven' 'seven' 'seven' '"

    6:16 One note which i have to make The maximum number of possible states are 65536 in 16 Bits and 256 in 8 Bits. But the highest numbers which can be represented in these systems are 65535 in 16 Bit and 255 in 8 Bit. It is possible to have all transistors turned off. That means the number zero. This adds the additional possible state. Just a remark if people are looking this video and want to learn about the binary system Nevertheless a great video demonstrating the Bit system :)

    By the way, you can use binary counting on your fingers too if you're counting a large quantity instead of tallying and remembering how many tens there have been. You can count all the way to 1023, over 100 times more values than tallying. It's dope.
