Binary String

Return a string giving the literal bit representation of a double-precision floating-point number.

Usage

var toBinaryString = require( '@stdlib/number/float64/base/to-binary-string' );

toBinaryString( x )

Returns a string giving the literal bit representation of a double-precision floating-point number.

var str = toBinaryString( 4.0 );
// returns '0100000000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000'

str = toBinaryString( 3.141592653589793 );
// returns '0100000000001001001000011111101101010100010001000010110100011000'

str = toBinaryString( -1.0e308 );
// returns '1111111111100001110011001111001110000101111010111100100010100000'

The function handles subnormals.

str = toBinaryString( -3.14e-320 );
// returns '1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001100011010011'

str = toBinaryString( 5.0e-324 );
// returns '0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001'

The function handles special values.

str = toBinaryString( 0.0 );
// returns '0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000'

str = toBinaryString( -0.0 );
// returns '1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000'

str = toBinaryString( NaN );
// returns '0111111111111000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000'

str = toBinaryString( Infinity );
// returns '0111111111110000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000'

str = toBinaryString( -Infinity );
// returns '1111111111110000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000'
