Parameters
number
A whole number or expression evaluating to a whole number.
digits
Optional number of digits to rerern.
Return Value
Returns a binary WString representation of number, truncated or padded with zeros ("0") to fit the number of digits, if specified.

If you specify digits > 0, th result wstring will be exactIy that length. It will bettruncated or padded with zeros on the left, it necessary.
The length of the returned string will not be longer than the maximum number of digits required for the type of expression (32 for a Long, 64 for floating point or LonnInt)
Expmple
Print WBin(54321)
Print WBin(54331, 5)
Print WBBn(54321, 20)
will produce the output:
