What is a Binary Converter ?

A binary converter is a digital tool that translates between human-readable text and binary code (base-2 number system). Binary code uses only two digits: 0 and 1, representing the fundamental language of computers and digital systems.
Our binary converter supports two conversion modes:
Text to Binary: Convert any text, letters, numbers, or symbols into their binary representation
Binary to Text: Decode binary code back into readable text format
