How to change a sequence of strings into a sequence of binary?

str = 'Daniel';

binary = dec2bin(str);

binary

string = char(bin2dec(binary));

string

This code segment diplays the output as a char array as shown below

binary =

6×7 char array

'1000100'

'1100001'

'1101110'

'1101001'

'1100101'

'1101100'

string =

6×1 char array

'D'

'a'

'n'

'i'

'e'

'l'

But, I want the output to be diplayed as a sequence like Binary = 10000100110000011101110110100111001011101100 and String = 'Daniel'

So, how can I get the output as I want above? Anyone help me.

Consider:

str = 'Daniel';
binary = dec2bin(str); % need to keep the structure for the moment
string = char(bin2dec(binary)).' % convert and transpose

string = 'Daniel'

binary = reshape(binary.',[],1).' % transpose/reshape to a vector

binary = '100010011000011101110110100111001011101100'
