Decimal-Binary Conversion

programming flash
1

Again, reading one of the actionscript articles I ran into a script (in the Binary-Decimal Conversion Article) that I didnt understand completely.

// convert decimal number to binary string
function dec2bin(iNumber) {
	var bin = "";
	var oNumber = iNumber;
	//this while method constructs a string from the number you enter as iNumber when you call the function
	while (iNumber>0) {
		if (iNumber%2) {
			bin = "1"+bin;
		} else {
			bin = "0"+bin;
		}
		iNumber = Math.floor(iNumber/2);
	}
	// left pad with zeros
	/*while (bin.length<15) {
	
	bin = "0"+bin;
	
	}*/
	return bin;
}

Could anyone explain this piece of code for me.
Maybe by taking a decimal number as example and saying what Flash does with it, in the while loop, or smth :blush:

Thanks in advance
