function Get-BinaryNumber { <# .Synopsis Converts an INT64 to a binary representation .DESCRIPTION This cmdlet takes a integer number as input and will return a string object with the binary representation of the integer value. It supports pipeline input. By default it will pad with a maximum of 3 zeros. You can override this with the NumberOfDigits parameter .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-BinaryNumber -Number 16 10000 PS C:\> This example converts the integer 16 to the binary representation .EXAMPLE PS C:\> 16 | Get-BinaryNumber 10000 PS C:\> This example converts the integer 16 to the binary representation using the pipeline .EXAMPLE PS C:\> 255 | Get-BinaryNumber -NumberOfDigits 10 0011111111 PS C:\> This example converts the integer 255 to the binary representation using the pipeline and returns 10 digits .INPUTS [int64] .OUTPUTS [string] .NOTES NAME: Get-BinaryNumber AUTHOR: Tore Groneng tore@firstpoint.no @toregroneng tore.groneng@gmail.com LASTEDIT: Jul 2016 KEYWORDS: Convert, Hex, Binary, bytes HELP:OK .LINK https://github.com/torgro/Numbers #> [CmdletBinding()] [OutputType([string])] Param( [Parameter(ValueFromPipeLine)] [int64[]]$Number , [int]$NumberOfDigits ) BEGIN { if(-not $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey("NumberOfDigits")) { $NumberOfDigits = 4 } } PROCESS { foreach($num in $Number) { if($num -ge 0) { ([int64][System.Convert]::ToString("$num",2)).ToString("D$NumberOfDigits") } } } } |
