Syntax
BIN2DEC(signed_binary_number)
signed_binary_number
- The signed 10-bit binary value to be converted to decimal, provided as a string.The most significant bit of
signed_binary_number
is the sign bit; that is, negative numbers are represented in two's complement format.For this function, the input value has a maximum of 0111111111 if positive, and a minimum of 1000000000 if negative.
If
signed_binary_number
is provided as a valid binary number, it will automatically be converted to the appropriate string input. For example,BIN2DEC(100)
andBIN2DEC("100")
yield the same result: 4.
Notes
- As with any binary value, only the digits
0
and1
are valid. Digits other than these will causeBIN2DEC
to return a#NUM!
error.
