function [ binary,decimal ] = num2binary16( number )

function [ binary,decimal ] = num2binary16( number )
%The IEEE 754 standard specifies a binary16 as having the following format:

%Sign bit: 1 bit
%Exponent width: 5 bits
%Significand precision: 11 bits (10 explicitly stored)
%S EEEEE MMMMMMMMMM
%INPUT: number is a random precision number

%OUTPUT : var binary is a 2‘s string of the binary16
%         var decimail is the value of the number in decimal
