when was binary code invented

The modern binary number system, the basis for binary code, was invented by Gottfried Leibniz in 1689 and appears in his article Explication de l'Arithmétique Binaire.

Recently I had a binary conversation and though it was brief brought back memories of how we had to write endlessly in binary code
