Number - the decimal integer you want to convert. If number is negative, valid place values are ignored and Dec2Bin returns a 10-character (10-bit) binary number in which the most significant bit is the sign bit. The remaining 9 bits are magnitude bits. Negative numbers are represented using two's-complement notation.

- Object
Places - the number of characters to use. If places is omitted, Dec2Bin uses the minimum number of characters necessary. Places is useful for padding the return value with leading 0s (zeros).
