Binary Code? with a dot?

[andreabisello]

Hi, and many thanks for this repository. I have a question regarding binary code provided with the examples, like this one https://github.com/ahmedfgad/ArithmeticEncodingPython?tab=readme-ov-file#example why does binary code is like 0.0010110? why there is a dot? You know, i would like to mare a comparison with Huffman encoding, calculating the length in bits of the messages, but the presence of the . is confusing me. thanks
