What do you mean by binary code?
Something generic, like writing the number 42 as 101010? In this case it would be used for everything... since it's the way your computer stores all information, in 0 and 1...
But if you mean something more specific, then please tell me what, cause I don't know what you mean.

not unless you have a LOT of time on your hands. As you saw with just writing the binary value for 42...it is a LOT longer than acsci. The code you write all ends up binary when the pc runs it...but until then leave machine code to the machines.

If you take a digital logic course or anything you might do something like build an adder.
