I recently find this question "How to create a table with all the combinations of 0 and 1".

• The statement is clear.
• It's popular, many visits, many answers.

But...

• The effort shown to find a solution is "0".
• It sounds a lot like an "homework".
• It's more related to "how to program", or "which is the logic I've to use to solve this problem" then to "how to use eXcel". Nonetheless we have to admit that with tools as eXcel, gnuplot, ..., the boundary is not so well defined.
• One of the million "How to convert decimal in binary" links, with eXcel and the warning on the 10 bits of the internal DEC2BIN function.
• A StackOverflow "programming" question "Using DEC2BIN() with large numbers"
• The Microsoft Page "Binary from 32-bit integer"

So: Is the fact that a question like this became popular enough to move the boundary of what we believe to be admissible as a question in our site? In other words shouldn't it be closed or migrated?

I always feel a kind of discomfort thinking to close a question...
