    I'm having trouble even getting started with this problem. I've tried looking at other examples, but I'm completely stuck.

    The question and my code(not even sure if im on the right track) is as follows:

    Write a function called decToBinaryString that recieves a non-negative int and returns a string that is a binary representation of the number input.
    tips - concatenate strings together
    test odd/even using %
    write a main() that test the code

    Code:
    #include<iostream>
    
    using namespace std;
    
    void intToBinaryString(unsigned long int, char *);
    
    #define ARRAY_SIZE 1000
    
    int main()
    {
        unsigned long int number;
        char binary[ARRAY_SIZE];
        int i;
    
        cout << "Enter a non-negative integer to convert to binary: ";
        cin >> number;
        intToBinaryString(number, binary);
        
        cout << "Binary representation: ";
        for(i = 0; i < binary
        system ("pause");
        return 0;
    }
    
    void intToBinaryString(unsigned long int num, char *bin)
    {
        int remainder; 
        <strong class="highlight">if</strong>(num%2 == 0)              //even
        {
            do
            {
                remainder = num%2;  
            }while(num > 0);
            
        
        else                        //(nonNeg%2 != 0) odd
                        
    }
