Binary To Decimal Conversion

Archiver

HELP!

I need to write a program to convert a binary number to a decimal
number and visaversa. It can either be in BASIC or JAVA.
Ultimately, I need to port it to the Javelin (Java Stamp by
Parallax), but I am not that sharp on Java, so I will probably get
it running on my BasicII stamp, first.

Any code ideas using pure math (no special BIN2DEC.EXE routines)
would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,

See the value prefixes on page 59 of the manual, and the debug command for
alot of info on this.

but basically, its easy to go from dec to bin. just get the value to the
stamp then output it using DEC, HEX, BIN.
variablea var byte

variablea = 137

debug "DEC: ", DEC variablea, CR, "HEX: ", HEX variablea, CR, "BIN: ", BIN
variablea

outputs:
DEC: 137
HEX: 89
BIN: 10001001
