Convert decimal to binary in C

Question

I am trying to convert a decimal to binary such as 192 to 11000000. I just need some simple code to do this but the code I have so far doesn\'t work:

void de         


        

Answer 1

Perhaps understanding the algorithm would allow you write or modify your own code to suit what you need. I do see that you don't have enough char array length to display your binary value for 192 though (You need 8 digits of binary, but your code only gives 5 binary digits)

Here's a page that clearly explains the algorithm.

I'm not a C/C++ programmer so here's my C# code contribution based on the algorithm example.

int I = 0;
int Q = 95;
string B = "";
while (Q != 0)
{
    Debug.Print(I.ToString());
    B += (Q%2);
    Q = Q/2;
    Debug.Print(Q.ToString());
    I++;
}

Debug.Print(B);

All the Debug.Print is just to show the output.
