DEC2BIN Convert Decimal to Binary String

Converts an integer to a binary string. The syntax for its use is

   y = dec2bin(x,n)

where x is the positive integer, and n is the number of bits to use in the representation. Alternately, if you leave n unspecified,

   y = dec2bin(x)

the minimum number of bits needed to represent x are used. If x is a vector, then the resulting y is a character matrix.

Here we convert some numbers to bits

--> dec2bin(56)

ans = 

 111000

--> dec2bin(1039456)

ans = 

 11111101110001100000

--> dec2bin([63,73,32],5)

ans = 

 11111
 01001
 00000
