What is digital data?

[Edit]

Answer

anything that is in binary format.
i.e. everything in the computer that you're looking at right now.
binary format means that it's all 0 & 1 info (or on and off)

analog data can have any value between 0 and 1 (0.345 for example)

there are advantages to both kinds of info, but if you want to use a computer, it has to be digital
