How text becomes binary
Each character has a numeric code (ASCII/UTF-8), and that code is written as an 8-bit binary byte - lowercase h is 104, which is 01101000. String the bytes together and you have the whole phrase in binary. Decode binary back to text with the binary to text converter, or look up any letter in the alphabet in binary table.
