Parameters:
ValueToConvert = The value you wish to translate to a binary string
|
Returns:
ResultString$ |

For those familiar with binary number systems, Bin$() is a handy function that will take an integer value and convert it to a binary formatted string.
FACTS
* The created string will be in the form "%00000000000000000000000000000000"
* Each bit is represented with either a 0 (off) or 1 (on) character.
* PlayBASIC compiler supports binary literals, so you insert such values into your source code directly.

How to display the binary representation of integer values.
; Display 255 in binary
Print Bin$(255)
; Display the values 0 through 10 in binary.
For lp=0 To 10
Print Str$(lp)+" )="+Bin$(lp)
Next
; Display the Screen and wait for the user to press a key
