DEC2BIN(number, padding)
- Where 'number' is the decimal integer to be converted and
- 'padding' is the number of characters to display the output.
DEC2BIN() function converts a decimal number to its binary equivalent.
Description
DEC2BIN(number, padding)
- DEC2BIN returns the NAN(error) value, when the 'number' is negative or nonnumeric.
- The 'number' should be in the range -512 to 511.
- 'padding' argument is used to return the output with leading zeros. If 'padding' argument is not used, 'Calci' uses the minimum number of characters required to display the binary output.
- DEC2BIN returns the NAN(error) value, whenever the 'padding' is nonnumeric, zero or negative.
- If 'padding' contains decimal value, Calci truncates the decimal point and uses the integer value as input.
Lets see an example,
DEC2BIN(10, 5) is 1010
DEC2BIN(100) is 100100
