Binary |
|
Any downloadable file that doesn't simply contain human-readable, ASCII text. Typically it refers to a runnable program available for downloading, but it can also refer to pictures, sounds, or movies, among others. Most Usenet newsgroups have sub groups specifically for binaries; a posting in comp.sys.mac.comm might announce that a progam is available for downloading, but the binary (the file itself) would be found in comp.sys.mac.comm.binaries. Newsgroups such as alt.pictures.binaries contain files for download which are actually pictures. You will need a newsreader to download and decode thes files. SEE ALSO: binary numbers. |
