Hello /g/ Why are computers working in binary? Why not in decimal

That's a great idea!

Now you just need to figure out how to represent decimal or hexadecimal values using electric signals that can only have 2 states (on and off), I'm sure a genius like you won't have a problem with this.

maki give me the faki

>>58956647

off switch
on switch

if you can make it any other way, you will make billions

>>58956647
there were analog computers

anyway, it's safer to operate on two (high/low) voltage values than gazillion of different levels of voltage which are easy to get wrong

>electric signals can be only interpreted as on/off
you're certainly far cry from genius like animu-spaming op

>>58956705
this

it's not a "is it possible" problem, it's a question of efficiency, simplicity, and expressibility

Spin Up

What do you mean?

This poorfag ain't got dimmer switches in every room.

Maki!

Quantum computers. They are really FAST by the way.

>>58956647
because of boolean logic

quantum computing would be ternary
