write a program to convert binary number to decimal number in c language | CTechnotips

Binary number system: It is base 2 number system which uses the digits from 0 and 1.

Decimal number system:

It is base 10 number system which uses the digits from 0 to 9

Convert from binary to decimal algorithm:

For this we multiply each digit separately from right side by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 … respectively then add them.

Binary number to decimal conversion with example:

For example we want to convert binary number 101111 to decimal:

Step1:  1 * 1 = 1

Step2:  1 * 2 = 2

Step3:  1 * 4 = 4

Step4:  1 * 8 = 8

Step5:  0 * 16 = 0

Step6:  1 * 32 = 32

Its decimal value: 1 + 2 + 4+ 8+ 0+ 32 = 47

That is (101111)₂ = (47)₁₀

C code for binary to decimal conversion:

#include<stdio.h>

int main(){

   

    long int binaryNumber,decimalNumber=0,j=1,remainder;

    printf("Enter any number any binary number: ");

    scanf("%ld",&binaryNumber);

    while(binaryNumber!=0){

         remainder=binaryNumber%10;

        decimalNumber=decimalNumber+remainder*j;

        j=j*2;

        binaryNumber=binaryNumber/10;

    }

    printf("Equivalent decimal value: %ld",decimalNumber);

    return 0;

}

Sample output:

Enter any number any binary number: 1101

Equivalent decimal value: 13
