Well, to be honest, I don't know what the code is, but I first guessed it to be a simple substitution. Noticing the question mark at the end, I guessed the first few words (What is...) and filled out all of the letters I knew. The only word I know that looks like TW _ _ _ _ is twelve, and at that point, everything fell into place.

What is five plus twelve? = 17

Oh, also, obligatory AH is bad.

Real solution

This is a variation of Morse Code, with 1's representing dashes and 0's representing dots. When you translate it, it reads, "What is five plus twelve?" This is equal to 17 \boxed{17}

It is the Morse code. 0 means " . " and 1 means " - ". Looking at the Morse code, the code above means WHAT IS FIVE PLUS TWELVE?
