A single bit is like a tiny switch that can be either on or off. Imagine it's like the light in your room, it can only be on or off, and that’s all it needs to do. When you use your phone or play video games, millions of these tiny switches work together to make everything happen.
Examples
- Space shuttles use bits to calculate the right speed for landing.
