Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following statements BEST describes binary?

A notational system used to represent an “on” or “off” state

Binary is a notational system that is used to represent only one of two states - "on" or "off". Option B is incorrect as binary is not specifically used for encoding text documents, but rather can be used for any type of data. Option C is incorrect as binary does not relate to the classification of animals. Option D is incorrect as binary is not a technique exclusively used for storing multimedia files, but can also be used to store other types of data. Therefore, the best description of binary is as a notational system for representing "on" or "off" states.
