In this tutorial, we will learn to write a program in c to convert a decimal number into a binary number. Here we will use the division concept to convert it into a binary number.
Before moving towards the writing program let’s know about the binary numbers.
What is the Binary Number?
A binary number is a number that is expressed in the base-2 numeral system. This expression contains only numbers 0 and 1.
For eg:
If we want to write decimal in binary
1 can be written as 0 0 0 1 = 2^0
2 can be written as 0 0 1 0 = 2^1
3 can be written as 0 0 1 1 = 2^1 + 2^0
4 can be written as 0 1 0 0 = 2^2
How our binary number conversion program will behave?
- Binary number conversion program in C will take decimal as an input.
- We will divide the number by 2 to find the remainder and store that remainder.
- After storing reminder replace the original number with the new number which we got after divided by two.
- This process will continue till original number become 0.
- Here remaindar is binary number which we will get everytime.
C Program to convert decimal number into binary
#include <stdio.h> int main() { int arr[10], num, i, j; printf("Program to Convert Decimal Number into Binary\n"); printf("Please Give a Number to Convert in Binary: "); scanf("%d", &num); printf("Binary Number of %d is = ",num); for(i = 0; num > 0; i++) { arr[i] = num % 2; num = num / 2; } for(j = i - 1; j >= 0; j--) { printf(" %d ", arr[j]); } printf("\n"); return 0; }
