Typically programs can be packaged in one of two ways. Either as source code or as binaries.
Most proprietary software that you get off the shelf comes as a binary release only, as the vendor does not want to distribute the precious source code to their software. But many open-source applications do release their software as an alternative to binary distributions.
Source code releases require a compiler to build the binaries before the software can be run. It is useful to hafe the source code to applications which you may be trying to run on various platforms.
Compiled binaries can only run on the hardware/operating system for which they were compiled. This means that an binary release compiled for a PC running Windows will not work on a PC running Linux, and certainly not on a Mac running OSX.
If everyone were running Windows on PC hardware, binary distributions would be the most conveniant way to distribute software, because not every machine is equipped with a compiler (and it takes alot of time to compile some things). Because the user community now runs a variety of hardware and operating systems, software releases are often distributed along side binary releases for the most common platforms.
Note that this does not apply to Java. Java is truely platform independant, and compiled binaries do not differ from platform to platform.

A binary release is a copy of a program that can be downloaded and run on your computer without having to compile it vs. a source 'code' release.
Check out Freshmeat.com vs. Download.com and you'll get the idea.
Freshmeat has C++ or similar source code you can change or whatever and complie with diffent options.
An example of a binary release would be like Winzip or Winamp for which the source may not be available but you just download the binary and run it.

Binary options let users trade in currency pairs and stocks for various predetermined time-periods, minimal of which is 30 seconds. Executing trades is straightforward. The system uses user-friendly interfaces, which even an 8 years old kid, can operate without having to read any instructions. But winning trades is Not easy.
Binary trading is advertised as the only genuine system that lets users earn preposterous amounts of money in ridiculously short period of time. Advertisers try to implicate as if you can make $350 every 60 seconds; if it was true then binary trading would truly be an astonishing business.
However, does it make any sense? Can every trader make tons of money in binary trading? Who is actually paying all the money or the profit to traders?
The first challenge is finding a trustworthy binary broker; secondly, you need to find a binary trading strategy, which you can use to make profits consistently. Without an effective trading strategy, there is no way you can make money in this business.
Learning a profitable trading strategy is possible, You should watch this presentation video https://tr.im/16635
It's probably the best way to learn how to win with binary option

Program that's already compiled and ready to use, as opposed to source code release (source code which must be compiled).
