Bin()

Syntax

Result$ = Bin(Value.q [, Type])

Convert a quad numeric number into a string, in binary format.

Example:

  Debug Bin(32) ; Will display "100000"
  Debug Bin(1024*1024*1024*1024) ; Will display "10000000000000000000000000000000000000000"

Note: If leading zero are needed in the output string, use the RSet() function as follows:

  Debug RSet(Bin(32), 16, "0") ; Will display "0000000000100000"

The optional parameter 'Type' may be used, if the 'Value' should be treated as another type.

'Type' may be:

  #PB_Byte   : The value is a byte number, ranging from 0 to 255
  #PB_Ascii  : The value is a ascii character, ranging from 0 to 255
  #PB_Word   : The value is a word number, ranging from 0 to 65536
  #PB_Unicode: The value is a unicode character, ranging from 0 to 65536
  #PB_Long   : The value is a long number, ranging from 0 to 4294967296
  #PB_Quad   : The value is a quad number, ranging from 0 to 18446744073709551615
