GArrret, I understood what you meant. But is there any advantage of using Binary for programmers ??
The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts. Think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day. The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny - it is the light that guides your way. - Heraclitus

It seasier for computers to count in the binary system becausr there are only two states. 0 or 1, off or on, low voltage or high voltage. However you want o think of it. Think of a light switch, it only knows two states, either its off or its on. Its the same reasoning for computers working in the binary system. The computer doesnt have to, or need to keep track of ten different states (0 - 9) just two states (0 -1) off or on.
