HP 71B and TI-84 Plus CE: Binary Decimal Conversions Revised

HP 71B and TI-84 Plus CE:  Binary Decimal Conversions Revised


The programs presented can easily convert integers without the needs of lists or strings in input.  



HP 71B Programs:  BINDEC, DECBIN


No modules are required.


BINDEC (137 bytes)


100 DISP "BIN>DEC" @ WAIT .5

105 DESTROY A,B,C,D,E

110 INPUT "BIN? ";A

115 B=1 @ D=0 @ C=A

200 E=A/10 @ A=INT(E)

205 D=D+10*B*(E-A) @ B=2*B

210 IF A THEN 200

300 DISP "(2)";C;"="D


DECBIN (130 bytes)


100 DISP "DEC>BIN" @ WAIT .5

105 DESTROY A,B,C,D

110 INPUT "DEC? ";D

115 B=0 @ A=D @ C=1

200 E=D/2 @ D=INT(E)

205 B=B+C*(D<E)

210 C=C*10

215 IF D THEN 200

300 PRINT A;"=(2)";B



TI-84 Plus CE Programs:  BINDEC2, DECBIN2



BINDEC2


"V.2"

Disp "BIN>DEC"

Input "BIN? ",A

1→B:0→D:A→C

Lbl 2

A/10→E:iPart(E)→A

D+10*B*(E-A)→D

2*B→B

If A:Goto 2

Disp "(2) "+toString(C)+"= "+toString(D)



DECBIN2


"V.2"

Disp "DEC>BIN"

Input "DEC? ",D

0→B:D→A:1→C

Lbl 2

D/2→E:iPart(E)→D

B+C*(D<E)→B

10*C→C

If D:Goto 2

Disp toString(A)+"=(2) "+toString(B)


This is recommended for only integer values of 512 (decimal base) or less.  


Example


Decimal: 476  (DEC>BIN)

Result Binary:  111011100


Binary:  10111011 (BIN>DEC)

Result Decimal:  187
