Convert to binary from base-10
This a problem set for you to work through [1]
This is a problem set. Some of these are easy, others are far more difficult. The purpose of these problems sets are:
- to build your skill applying computational thinking to a problem
- to assess your knowledge and skills of different programming practices
What is this problem set trying to do[edit]
The actual solution to this problem is fairly straight-forward, but imagining how to solve the problem is tricky. As a side note, you must understand how to convert base 10 to base 2.
The Problem[edit]
Ask the user to enter a number in base 10. Then convert the number the user entered into binary. Extra points if you ensure the binary always has 8 digits
Unit Tests[edit]
- User Input: 1
- Expected output: 1
- User Input: 4
- Expected output: 100
- User Input: 8
- Expected output: 1000
