binary logic
True or false
Binary logic is a system of reasoning based on two possible states—true or false, yes or no, on or off, 1 or 0.
It forms the foundation of digital computing, where all operations reduce to combinations of these two values.
The term also describes thinking that admits no middle ground or nuance: His binary logic couldn't accommodate complexity.
