bindec Binary to decimal &reftitle.description; numberbindec stringbinary_string Returns the decimal equivalent of the binary number represented by the binary_string argument. bindec converts a binary number to an integer or, if needed for size reasons, float. bindec interprets all binary_string values as unsigned integers. This is because bindec sees the most significant bit as another order of magnitude rather than as the sign bit. &reftitle.parameters; binary_string The binary string to convert The parameter must be a string. Using other data types will produce unexpected results. &reftitle.returnvalues; The decimal value of binary_string &reftitle.examples; ]]> &example.outputs; ]]> &example.outputs.32bit; &example.outputs.64bit; &reftitle.notes; The function can convert numbers that are too large to fit into the platforms integer type, larger values are returned as float in that case. &reftitle.seealso; decbin octdec hexdec base_convert
