Analog signals vary continuously, as with the rays of light forming an image, while digital signals are non-continuous, as with binary numbers.

模拟信号是连续变化的，如形成图像的光线，而数字信号是非连续的，如二进制数。

Math with binary numbers isn’t hard either.

二进制数的数学也不难。

There is no difference fundamentally -- it's all just binary numbers.

根本上没有区别——都只是二进制数。

So maybe the key is to think of addition of binary numbers, with the sum of the lit disks communicating the corrupted disk number.

所以，也许关键就是二元码的加总，让亮灯硬碟编号的加总代表损坏硬碟的编号。

And you need similar context to tell whether you’re looking at binary numbers or binary text.

您需要类似的上下文来判断您查看的是二进制数字还是二进制文本。

Those of you who are computer scientists or mathematicians or, for whatever reason, know binary numbers could convert it into a single binary number.

那些计算机科学家或数学家，或者出于某种原因知道二进制数的人可以将其转换为单个二进制数。

And in the same way that ASCII defines a scheme for encoding letters as binary numbers, other file formats – like MP3s or GIFs – use binary numbers to encode sounds or colors of a pixel in our photos, movies, and music.

就像 ASCII 将字母编码为二进制数的方案一样，其他文件格式（如 MP3 或 GIF）使用二进制数对照片、电影和音乐中像素的声音或颜色进行编码。
