It's a reasonably good explanation of binary numbers and "encoding" in a
more usual sense than we use it here in Unicode-land. Actually makes
for a basis to move on to discussing information theory. But when
Unicodites say "encoding", they mean stuff like UTF-8 vs UTF-16, which
is kind of a different kettle of macaroons.
