Not sure what you mean by "binary". I normally regard binary numbers as only
having ones and zeros. Thus {0,0,0,2} doesn't fit my idea of a binary number
'cos it has a '2' in it.

Or does this sequence represent a 4-byte number, with each element having
the range 0-255?

In that last case the atom could be ((((s[1] *
256)+s[2])*256)+s[3])*256)+s[4]
