If you want to enter character strings or numeric values as binary numbers, you can quote binary numbers with single quotes and a prefix of (B), or just prefix binary numbers with (0b). Binary numbers will be automatically converted into character strings or numeric values based on the expression contexts. Here are some good examples:

SELECT B'010000010100001001000011' FROM DUAL;
   ABC

SELECT 0b1000 + 0 FROM DUAL;
   8
