I think a binary tree is a thing to help you search whereas binary is 100100101010, that thing that computers use...I think the difference is that a binary tree helps you search but binary is the thing that computers use:10010101001010

The term binary refers to the idea that there are "2" options. In terms of computers at a low level, this refers to 1's and 0's (high voltage and low voltage). A binary tree is a completely different concept. It is a type of data structure with a parent node that branches down into 2 child nodes at each level. If implemented as a binary *search* tree it is pretty efficient at searching data sets that are ordered (O(log n))
