I choose to define a number in base 10.

number := 22

22

 (1)

Then I choose to convert that number into base 2.

number_binary := convert(number, binary)

10110

On visual inspection it is determined that number_binary has 5 digits in binary representation.

Is there a common command that can count the number of digits in a binary number? Such as, 10110 has 5 digits.
