BINAC, which stands for Binary Automatic Computer, is one of the earliest computers developed in the United States. Created in the early 1950s by the Northrop Corporation, it is notable for being one of the first computers to use binary numbers for calculations, as opposed to the decimal system used by earlier machines. BINAC was designed to be a high-speed, flexible computing system, capable of performing a variety of calculations.
