C Language Examples - Octal and Binary Conversion

C Language Examples

Conversion between octal and binary.

Example - Binary to Octal Conversion

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

int convertBinarytoOctal(long long binaryNumber);
int main()
{
    long long binaryNumber;

    printf("Enter a binary number: ");
    scanf("%lld", &binaryNumber);

    printf("Binary number %lld converted to octal is %d", binaryNumber, convertBinarytoOctal(binaryNumber));

    return 0;
}

int convertBinarytoOctal(long long binaryNumber)
{
    int octalNumber = 0, decimalNumber = 0, i = 0;

    while(binaryNumber != 0)
    {
        decimalNumber += (binaryNumber%10) * pow(2,i);
        ++i;
        binaryNumber/=10;
    }

    i = 1;

    while (decimalNumber != 0)
    {
        octalNumber += (decimalNumber % 8) * i;
        decimalNumber /= 8;
        i *= 10;
    }

    return octalNumber;
}

Output:

Enter a binary number: 101001
Binary number 101001 converted to octal is 51

Example - Octal to Binary Conversion

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

long long convertOctalToBinary(int octalNumber);
int main()
{
    int octalNumber;

    printf("Enter an octal number: ");
    scanf("%d", &octalNumber);

    printf("Octal number %d converted to binary is %lld", octalNumber, convertOctalToBinary(octalNumber));

    return 0;
}

long long convertOctalToBinary(int octalNumber)
{
    int decimalNumber = 0, i = 0;
    long long binaryNumber = 0;

    while(octalNumber != 0)
    {
        decimalNumber += (octalNumber%10) * pow(8,i);
        ++i;
        octalNumber/=10;
    }

    i = 1;

    while (decimalNumber != 0)
    {
        binaryNumber += (decimalNumber % 2) * i;
        decimalNumber /= 2;
        i *= 10;
    }

    return binaryNumber;
}

Output:

Enter an octal number: 51
Octal number 51 converted to binary is 101001
