// Converts an integer to a binary string with a fixed size
func binStr(n, size int) string {
    var builder strings.Builder
    for i := size - 1; i >= 0; i-- {
        if (n>>i)&1 == 1 {
            builder.WriteByte('1')
        } else {
            builder.WriteByte('0')
        }
    }
    return builder.String()
}


func main() {
    var x, size int

    x = 5
    size = 8
    fmt.Println(binStr(x, size))
    
    fmt.Println(binStr(15, size))
}
