Why the function "bi2de" only returns non-negative integers, when the description says it returns non-negative real numbers!

I read that the function bi2de takes any binary vector - "a vector composed of only zeros and ones" and returns a non-negative real number. But, I tried it many times it returns positive integers!

Not sure where you are reading that. The document says

d =bi2de(b) converts a binary row vector b to a nonnegative decimal integer.
