{{alias}}( x )
    Returns a string giving the literal bit representation of an unsigned 8-bit
    integer.

    Except for typed arrays, JavaScript does not provide native user support for
    unsigned 8-bit integers. According to the ECMAScript standard, `number`
    values correspond to double-precision floating-point numbers. While this
    function is intended for unsigned 8-bit integers, the function will accept
    floating-point values and represent the values as if they are unsigned 8-bit
    integers. Accordingly, care should be taken to ensure that only nonnegative
    integer values less than `256` (`2^8`) are provided.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x: integer
        Input value.

    Returns
    -------
    str: string
        Bit representation.

    Examples
    --------
    > var a = new Uint8Array( [ 1, 4, 9 ] );
    > var str = {{alias}}( a[ 0 ] )
    '00000001'
    > str = {{alias}}( a[ 1 ] )
    '00000100'
    > str = {{alias}}( a[ 2 ] )
    '00001001'
