Excuse me, could you elaborate on how binary works? I'm particularly interested in understanding the fundamental principles behind it and how it's applied in various contexts. I've heard that it's the basis for computer programming and digital systems, but I'm curious about the specifics. Could you explain it in simple terms, please? How does binary work?

For instance, in the binary number 1010, the rightmost 0 is multiplied by 2^0, the next 1 by 2^1, the subsequent 0 by 2^2, and the leftmost 1 by 2^3.

Summing these products gives the decimal value of the binary number. In this case, 1*2^3 + 0*2^2 + 1*2^1 + 0*2^0 equals 10.
