Program for Decimal to Binary Conversion

Given a decimal number as input, we need to write a program to convert the given decimal number into equivalent binary number.

Examples:

 
Input : 7
Output : 111

Input : 10
Output : 1010

Input: 33
Output: 100001

Recommended: Please solve it on “PRACTICE ” first, before moving on to the solution.

Algorithm:

Store the remainder when the number is divided by 2 in an array.
Divide the number by 2
Repeat the above two steps until the number is greater than zero.
Print the array in reverse order now.

For Example:
If the binary number is 10.
Step 1: Remainder when 10 is divided by 2 is zero. Therefore, arr[0] = 0.
Step 2: Divide 10 by 2. New number is 10/2 = 5.
Step 3: Remainder when 5 is divided by 2 is 1. Therefore, arr[1] = 1.
Step 4: Divide 5 by 2. New number is 5/2 = 2.
Step 5: Remainder when 2 is divided by 2 is zero. Therefore, arr[2] = 0.
Step 6: Divide 2 by 2. New number is 2/2 = 1.
Step 7: Remainder when 1 is divided by 2 is 1. Therefore, arr[3] = 1.
Step 8: Divide 1 by 2. New number is 1/2 = 0.
Step 9: Since number becomes = 0. Print the array in reverse order. Therefore the equivalent binary number is 1010.

Below diagram shows an example of converting the decimal number 17 to equivalent binary number.

Below is the implementation of above idea.

C/C++

// C++ program to convert a decimal 
// number to binary number 
  
#include <iostream> 
using namespace std; 
  
// function to convert decimal to binary 
void decToBinary(int n) 
{ 
    // array to store binary number 
    int binaryNum[32]; 
  
    // counter for binary array 
    int i = 0; 
    while (n > 0) { 
  
        // storing remainder in binary array 
        binaryNum[i] = n % 2; 
        n = n / 2; 
        i++; 
    } 
  
    // printing binary array in reverse order 
    for (int j = i - 1; j >= 0; j--) 
        cout << binaryNum[j]; 
} 
  
// Driver program to test above function 
int main() 
{ 
    int n = 17; 
    decToBinary(n); 
    return 0; 
} 

Java

// Java program to convert a decimal 
// number to binary number 
import java.io.*; 
  
class GFG  
{ 
    // function to convert decimal to binary 
    static void decToBinary(int n) 
    { 
        // array to store binary number 
        int[] binaryNum = new int[32]; 
   
        // counter for binary array 
        int i = 0; 
        while (n > 0)  
        { 
            // storing remainder in binary array 
            binaryNum[i] = n % 2; 
            n = n / 2; 
            i++; 
        } 
   
        // printing binary array in reverse order 
        for (int j = i - 1; j >= 0; j--) 
            System.out.print(binaryNum[j]); 
    } 
      
    // driver program 
    public static void main (String[] args)  
    { 
        int n = 17; 
        decToBinary(n); 
    } 
}

We can use bitwise operators to do above job. Note that bitwise operators work faster than arithmetic operators used above.

// CPP program to Decimal to binary conversion 
// using bitwise operator 
// Size of an integer is assumed to be 32 bits 
#include <iostream> 
using namespace std; 
  
// Function that convert Decimal to binary 
int decToBinary(int n) 
{ 
    // Size of an integer is assumed to be 32 bits 
    for (int i = 31; i >= 0; i--) { 
        int k = n >> i; 
        if (k & 1) 
            cout << "1"; 
        else
            cout << "0"; 
    } 
}
