Binary number numeric values may be represented by two different voltages; on a magnetic disk, magnetic polarities may be used. A "positive", "yes", or "on" state is not necessarily equivalent to the numerical value of one; it depends on the architecture in use. In keeping with customary representation of numerals using Arabic numerals, binary numbers are commonly written using the symbols 0 and 1. When written, binary numerals are often subscripted, prefixed or suffixed in order to indicate their base, or radix. The following notations are equivalent: When spoken, binary numerals are usually read digit-by-digit, in order to distinguish them from decimal
Binary code practical applications such as computers, electric circuits, and more. The bit string is not the only type of binary code.
