bits

bits(n)

A string giving the literal bit representation of a number.

Examples

Get the bit representation of an integer:
```
julia> bits(10)
"0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001010"
```
This example returns the bit representation of the number 10.
Observe the binary representation of a floating-point number:
```
julia> bits(3.14)
"0100000000001001000111101011100001010001111010111000010100011110"
```
It returns the bit representation of the floating-point number 3.14.
Check the binary encoding of a negative number:
```
julia> bits(-7)
"1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111001"
```
This example returns the bit representation of the negative number -7.

Common mistake example:

julia> bits("hello")
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching bits(::String)

In this example, the bits function is applied to a string, which results in a MethodError. It's important to note that the bits function is designed to work with numeric types, not strings. Ensure that the input to bits is a valid number to avoid such errors.
