Break the “CODE”
How does coding work? Writing code tells the computer what to do. A computer can only understand two distinct types of data: on and off. A computer is really just a collection of on/off switches.
Binary code is a collections of on/off switches represented by 1s and 0s. 0 (zero) is off and 1 (one) is on. These 1s and 0s make up binary numbers. 8 digits grouped together are called a Byte such as the binary number 11101001. Writing a computer program by typing out billions of 1s and 0s would require superhuman brainpower and a lifetime to do it. This is why computer programming languages were developed.
Can you find something in this story that can be changed, in some way, to become a lock code?
