Binary code practical applications such as computers, electric circuits, and more. The bit string is not the only type of binary code. A binary system, in general, is any system that allows only two choices such as a switch in an electronic system or a simple true or false test. Braille is a type of binary code that is widely used by the blind to read and write by touch, named for its creator, Louis Braille. This system consists of grids of six dots each, three per column, in which each dot has two states: raised or not raised. The different combinations
Point plotting Point plotting Point plotting is an elementary mathematical skill required in analytic geometry. Invented by René Descartes and originally used to locate positions on military maps, this skill is now assumed of everyone who wants to locate grid 7A on any map. Using point plotting, one associates an ordered pair of real numbers ("x", "y") with a point in the plane in a one-to-one manner. As a result, one obtains the 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. To be able to plot points, one needs to first decide on a point in plane which will be called the "origin", and a couple
