What is a binary?
Executable programs! Bin-ary instructions for the computer to perform!
Also, technically these will not just have binaries. I should have said executable, really, because scripts are there, too.
Actually binaries can include non-executable files as well! Strictly speaking, a “binary” refers to pretty much any file that’s not plain-text (so if you tried to open a binary in a text editor, you’d see gibberish).
