# BIN

## Syntax

```
BIN <binary numbeŕ>
```


## Description

`BIN` is used to denote a binary number. It exists mostly for compatibility reasons with Sinclair BASIC.
You can denote a binary number by prefixing it with `BIN`, but also using the `%` prefix or the `b` suffix.

For example, the number `5` can be denoted as follows:

  * `BIN 101`
  * `101b`
  * `%101`

These three expressions are equivalent.


## Remarks

* This keyword is 100% Sinclair BASIC Compatible
* Binary numbers are always considered unsigned integers and the type depends on the size of the number.
