Convert a Decimal Number into Binary Representation

This is very easy to implement.

Principle to Convert

A decimal number is converted into binary number by repeatedly dividing the number by 2 and prepending the remainder. So the first remainder is placed at Unit Place, Second remainder at Tens Place, Third remainder at Hundreds Place and so on.

	/**
	* Converts given Decimal number into Binary representation
	* @param m decimal number to converto to binary
	* @return Binary representation of input decimal number
	*/
	public String convert(int m) {
	String binary = "";
	while(m > 0) {
	binary = (m % 2) + binary; // append new remainder at the beginning
	m /= 2;
	}
	return binary;
	} // convert
