[RESOLVED] HELP : converting a decimal number given by the user to binary using C++

[boushima]

Write a C++ program that adds three binary numbers of 8-bit
each. Every number is stored into an array of 8 elements.
Example:

Array A
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0
+
Array B
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0
+
Array C
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0

Store the result into an array D of 8 elements. Your program
should show the decimal numbers for every binary number.
Print screen of 6 answers. This means you should try your
program six times with different numbers in every run and show
the printed screen result.

Helping you would be a very bad idea, because it appears you did not try on your own to devise a plan how to tackle the problem.

I can provide some links though:

Apply the addition algorithm you learned in first grade only now you use binary numbers instead of decimal numbers. These are different number systems but the addition algorithm is general and works the same regardless.

To print the decimal equivalent of a binary number you must understand the properties of a positional number system, that is one where each digit position carries a weight.
