Everything you are describing is analog. In digital systems that use
binary
numbers (the majority of electronic systems), everything is either one or
zero. There is no half-one/half-zero. There are no intermediate values..
That
is the nature of digital systems.

It all went right over the top of you head, didn't it?

Your knowledge of things digital is just as superficial as everything else
you claim to know about.

Back in the last century when I did design, much of it digital, there
were many times the electrons refused to read my schematics. But
interviewing was not that difficult, many were VERY short because
there was no reason to talk further to someone who was as simplistic
as at least one of the posters here. My comment frequently was, "You
know, I don't think there's a good fit here. Why don't we finish our
coffee and talk about" -- insert here whatever we found as an area of
mutual interest.
