That's some tough looking stuff. I really don't understand it at all, but yeah............

This is often called Binary Code, there's also a version of it called Grey Code vary similiar but the rules are different
0001 = 1
0010 = 2
0011 = 3
0100 = 4
0101 = 5
0110 = 6
0111 = 7
1000 = 8
but you could have unlimited positions like
1000 1000 = 24
0100 1011 0100 = 1024
you can + - * /
just like typical math , it's a lot of fun.
but it's also used as machine code to program processors. etc

binary is just a way to represent a decimal number, its base 2. when you turn it into letters, that is just the ascii representation of binary numbers, but they are still only numbers. CRX YEM explained it best.
EDIT:
to add...
in hex, that is:
356A
in decimal it is:
13674

what CRX-YEM did was not binary, bindary is 8 digits long no matter what... what he typed was not binary....

that is binary it also has hex oct and dec on it too...

no, you are wrong again.
an 8 bit length string of binary numbers represents a byte. to say something is not 8bits long, does not mean it is not binary.
