dec_to_bin is a function that takes a decimal number as input and converts it to a vector representing the binary form of the number with the MSB to the right.
Syntax
- BIN = dec_to_bin(DEC)
Argument descriptions
- DEC: The decimal number to be converted to a vector representing the binary form of DEC. This must be a non-negative integer.
