binary
Based on two units or states. In computer science, it refers to the base-2 number system, which uses only the digits 0 and 1.
Moderne Computer verarbeiten intern alle Daten im Binärcode.
Modern computers process all data internally in binary code.
binary
Describing a system that consists of only two mutually exclusive parts or options, such as the traditional division of gender into male and female.
Die Debatte um nicht-binäre Geschlechtsidentitäten hinterfragt das binäre Geschlechtermodell.

binary
In chemistry, a compound that consists of exactly two different chemical elements.
Kochsalz, also Natriumchlorid (NaCl), ist eine binäre Verbindung.
Table salt, that is sodium chloride (NaCl), is a binary compound.
The word derives from the Latin 'bi' meaning 'two'. All meanings of 'binär' (binary) have to do with the principle that something consists of exactly two parts or possibilities.
Das System erlaubt nur eine binäre Entscheidung: Ja oder Nein.
The system allows only a binary decision: yes or no.
You can recognize the exact meaning from the subject area. In the context of computers and data, it is about the number system (0/1). With topics such as gender or society, it is about a two-part model. In chemistry, it describes compounds made of two elements.
Ein Computer übersetzt alles in binäre Informationen.
A computer translates everything into binary information.
In computer science, the most common combinations are 'binärer Code' (binary code), 'binäres System' (binary system), or 'binäre Zahl' (binary number). It always refers to base 2 with the digits 0 and 1.
Jeder Buchstabe wird im Computer durch eine binäre Ziffernfolge dargestellt.
In a computer, each letter is represented by a binary sequence of digits.
In discussions about society or identity, people often speak of 'binäres Denken' (binary thinking) or the 'binäres Geschlechtermodell' (binary gender model: man/woman). In this context, the term 'nicht-binär' (non-binary) is also very important.
Viele Menschen identifizieren sich als nicht-binär.
Many people identify as non-binary.
digital
A digital signal generally represents information as numbers that a computer can process. Binär is more specific: the representation uses only two states, or 0 and 1. Use digital for the general non-analog form and binär when the two-state system itself is important.
Das Messgerät codiert das Signal binär nur mit 0 und 1.
The measuring device encodes the signal in binary using only 0 and 1.
Das Messgerät speichert das Signal digital als Zahlenwerte.
The measuring device stores the signal digitally as numerical values.
