Would it be correct to say that the brain is built around a binary language, given that either a certain neuron is firing or it is not?

Neurons are highly complex and operate more like "analog" than "digital" (binary.)

Approaching this from a computer science perspective, there have been attempts replicate the behavior of simple, relatively closed neural systems found in animals. These systems may employ as few as a dozen neurons, yet using a binary system that replicates them requires much, much more than a dozen bits of information.

Now, obviously this doesn't mean that computer science has proven that neurons aren't binary. However, it hints that neurons are encoding much more than binary information.
