BitDtoB BitTrim

BitBtoD


 nThe BitBtoD function converts a binary string representation to a decimal number.

Syntax

nNumber = BitBtoD( sString )

Remarks

The binary representation has the lowest bit at the right end of the string. The function does not care whether the string contains leading zeros for the highest order bits that are not set.

Example

The following script converts a binary string representation to a decimal number. Note that the decimal number is printed using %u because it is considered an unsigned (i.e., 0 or positive) integer.

s = "100101"

-- pick a number

n = BitBtoD( s )

-- convert to a decimal number

Printf( "'%s binary --> %u'", s, n )

-- prints 100101 binary --> 37
