Having to do with numbers represented in base 2. That means there's basically two numbers, 0 and 1. Also used to describe a "non-text file", presumably because such a file makes full use of all the binary bits in its bytes. With the advent of Unicode, this distinction, already suspect, loses even more of its meaning.

In the context of computing, having two states e.g. 0 and 1, or True and False. In everyday counting we use decimal or base 10, which means that each number's position has a value of 10 times the value of the position to its right. In binary counting, which has a base of 2, each number's position has a value of 2 times the value of [..]
