Re: [julia-users] Re: converting binary string into integer

[Alberto Barradas]

Hi guys,
Now that `parseint()` got removed for version 0.5, Is `parse()` the only 
way to do this?
 How could I parse binary into a BigInt? More specifically, I want to see 
the integer number of the arecibo message. (73x23 so 1679 binary digits 
into a big int)
