Explanation to a code for binary addition?

I've been doing some Java exercises online to improve. And I've come across this code for binary addition. But, I can't for the life of me figure out what it does. Would anyone happen to understand and be willing to explain it to this Java amateur? Much appreciated! https://code.sololearn.com/ctLuXZ57DyFg/?ref=app

binary1=1010 binary2=10010 so alike summing 2 numbers.. we go right to left now both rightest digits are 0 and 0 for getting access of last digit we use remainder of division with 10 set a variable remainder = 0 now ; (binart1%10 + binary2%10 + remainder)%2 = 1st sum of right most digits... set remainder=(binart1%10 + binary2%10)/2 for accessing 2nd rightest pair of digits we 1st set binary1=binary1/10 & binary2=binary2/10 **** this thing is in while loop--repeating upto binary1 and binary2 are non zero***** as ; this above is binary addition... but compiler only understands normal addition... what we do is below... 0+0=0-->0%2=0 1+0=1-->1%2=1 0+1=1-->1%2=1 1+1=2-->2%2=0 ( remainder is 1 ) thus we get binary adition...

10010 +1 010 ------- 1 1100 binary addition... google binary addition and see the mathematical method first... its just that implementation of that method in java... 0+0=0 1+0=1 0+1=1 1+1=0 ( carry 1 )

Thank you for your answer. I am aware of that, but the code's process is what I unfortunately dont understand. (The steps and logic behind it)
