Binary Code Challenge: Crack the Code

Ada Lovelace is considered the first computer programmer. She wrote about the Analytical Engine, a computer, and she realized that computers can follow instructions through a series of numbers. This is referred to as binary code. It is made up of 2 characters: 1 and 0. Binary code is all around us! Binary code is used to convey information to lots of technology like computers, phones, and so much more
