Details

This conversion is intended to facilitate the transmission of data to another Tibbo programmable device, on which the strtobin function can be used to deserialize the data. This process can also be used to store data into a file — a great way to preserve data for a reboot or long-term storage.

Keep in mind that in Tibbo BASIC, strings are limited to 255 characters.
