The " on" state represents one type of binary digit (a one, say) and the " off" state represents the other (zero).

" 开" 的状态表示二进制中的数字（就是" " ），" 关" 的状态可以表示数字（即" 零" ）。

So binary digits, or otherwise known as bits.

所以二进制数字，或者其他的称为位。

And bits actually derive from just two words, binary digits.

而位实际上来自两字，二进制数字。

Each of these binary digits, 1 or 0, is called a " bit" .

这些二进制数字中的每，1 或 0，都称为“位”。

The simplest adding circuit that we can build takes two binary digits, and adds them together.

我们可以构建的最简单的加法电路两二进制数字，并将它们相加。

And if we want to represent larger things we just need to add more binary digits.

如果我们想表示更大的东西，我们只需要添加更多的二进制数字。

They would do this by using binary digits which, instead of having a value of either “one” or “zero”, had both at the same time.

途径是使二进制（即既有“1”也有“0”两值）。

And if we use more and more zeros and ones, more and more binary digits or bits so to speak, we can count up higher and higher and higher.

如果我们使越来越多的 0 和 1，可以说，越来越多的二进制数字或位，我们可以数到越来越高。

Memory Champion Marwin Wallonius used it to remember, in just 30 minutes, the correct order of 5040 binary digits and a complete deck of 52 cards in just 33 seconds.

记忆冠军马尔文·沃龙尼斯它在短短30分钟内记住了5040二进制数字的正确顺序，在短短33秒内完成52张牌的完整展示。

Most such computers use a type of math called Boolean logic that has only two possible values, the logical conditions true and false, denoted by binary digits one and zero.

大多数这样的计算机使种称为布尔逻辑的数学类型，它只有两可能的值，逻辑条件真和假，二进制数字 1 和 0 表示。
