Answer

A is false but R is true.

Explanation
Binary files are not an advanced version of text files but rather a different type of file. They serve different purposes and handle data differently. Text files store data as human-readable text using characters, while binary files store data using binary digits (0s and 1s), which are directly understood by computers.
