Re: Convert a number to its binary representation (not string) as 1D Vector

[Muthiah Annamalai]

Hello there,
It was more like the function dec2binvec() that  I was looking for.
http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/toolbox/daq/?/access/helpdesk/help/toolbox/daq/dec2binvec.html
Thanks for help everyone.

I actually found an implemnentation from the quantum Octave project 
http://quantum-octave.sourceforge.net/ at
http://quantum-octave.sourceforge.net/doc/Dec2BinVec.m.html

BTW quantum-octave is GPL'ed.

Regards,
Muthu
