:::Ah right. I would tend to refer to the argument as numerical, rather than binary in this case. By binary, I mean the base two numbering system. The argument is not really binary, if it is not in base two. (I am talking at input level, not cpu level here.) [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 21:20, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
::::But neither output text nor internal numbers are inputs in and of themselves (though either of them can be, with appropriate external interfaces). So this is a meaningless distinction without additional unspecified structure. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 22:39, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
:::::"The task is to output the sequence of binary digits for a given non negative decimal integer." - The word "given" here means supplied as input (this can be parametric input to the conversion routine, rather than user input), but I think that is splitting hairs. The task description looks fine to me. [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 23:16, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
