I am struggling to solve the following question: Write a function `dec_to_bin` that takes a decimal number as input and returns its binary representation as a string. Avoid using the built-in function `dec2bin`. Ensure that the function handles non-integer inputs and outputs the binary representation accurately.

So how can I write the function for this question? Because I am new to this

Let us start with something simple. If the input is 5.1, then what is "its binary representation as a string" ? You can work it out by hand and show us the major intermediate steps

Meh. I'm going to ignore negative numbers for now. The question doesn't seem to actually mention it, though I strongly suspect otherwise.

Since the question isn't answerable without somebody actually stating the requirements, here is a rudimentary fixed-point representation for positive numbers only. Does that meet the requirements? Nobody knows.

N = [6.375 14.5625];
bits = [4 4]; % bits dedicated to [whole fractional] parts
positivefixedpt(N,bits)
ans = 2×8 char array
    '01100110'
    '11101001'
function out = positivefixedpt(in,bits)
    % only operates on the magnitude of the input
    % sign is ignored
    N = abs(in(:)); % vectorize, get magnitude
    p = (bits(1)-1):-1:(-bits(2)); % powers corresponding to given bits
    out = floor(N./2.^p); % divide
    out = char(mod(out,2) + 48); % mod, convert to char
end
