In Computer Science, generally Octal number system used to store big data values. We know that computer only understands binary numbers that are 0 and 1. Every data are given as input to computer converts into binary number system. Here we will write a C program to convert octal to the binary number system. In the same way, conversion of Binary to Decimal and Decimal to Binary, Decimal to Octal and Octal to Decimal, and Binary to Octal also can be done.

For convert from Octal to Binary, we need to calculate power. So, we will use pow() function defined under standard library function math.h. First Octal will be converted to Decimal and after that conversion will be done from Decimal to Binary.

C Program to Convert Octal to Binary

 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<math.h>
 int main()
 {
     int oct, dec=0, bin=0, i=0;

     printf("Enter Octal Number: ");
     scanf("%d",&oct);

     // convert octal to decimal
     while(oct != 0)
     {
         dec += (oct%10) * (pow(8,i));
         oct /= 10;
         i++;
     }

     // now convert decimal to binary
     i=1;
     while(dec != 0)
     {
         bin += (dec%2) * i;
         dec /= 2;
         i *= 10; 
     }

     printf("Binary Value=%d",bin);

     return 0;
 }

Output:-

Enter Octal Number: 567
Binary Value= 101110111

Using Function

A function is a block of code that performs a specific task. For example, the main is a function and every program execution starts from the main function in C programming.

The C program is made of one or more functions. Every program must have at least one function with the name main. The execution of the program always starts from the main function and ends with the main function. The main function can call other functions to do some special task.

The function is a small program is used to do a particular task. In C a big program divided into several small subroutines/functions/procedures. Hence C is a function-oriented programming language.

 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<math.h>
 int convertOctalToDecimal(int m);
 int convertDecimalToBinary(int n);
 int main()
 {
     int octal, decimal, binary;

     printf("Enter Octal Number: ");
     scanf("%d",&octal);

     decimal = convertOctalToDecimal( octal );
     binary = convertDecimalToBinary( decimal );

     printf("Binary Value= %d", binary);

     return 0;
 }

 int convertOctalToDecimal(int m)
 {
     int dec=0, i=0;

     while(m != 0)
     {
         dec += (m%10) * pow(8,i);
         m /= 10;
         i++;
     }
     return dec;
 }

 int convertDecimalToBinary(int n)
 {
     int bin=0, j=1;

     while(n != 0)
     {
         bin += (n%2) * j;
         n /= 2;
         j *= 10;
     }
     return bin;
 }

C Program to convert Binary to Octal

First Binary will be converted to Decimal and after that conversion will be done from Decimal to Octal.

 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<math.h>
 int main()
 {
     int bin, dec=0, oct=0, i=0;

     printf("Enter Binary Number: ");
     scanf("%d", &bin);

     // first Convert Binary to Decimal
     while(bin != 0)
     {
         dec += (bin%10) * pow(2,i);
         bin /= 10;
         i++;
     }

     // now, Convert Decimal to Octal 
     i=1;
     while(dec != 0)
     {
         oct += (dec%8) * i;
         dec /= 8; 
         i *= 10;
     }

     printf("Octal Value = %d",oct);

     return 0;
 }

Output:-

Enter Binary Number: 110101001
Octal Value= 651

Binary to Octal using Function

 #include<stdio.h>
 #include<math.h>
 int convertBinaryToDecimal(int m);
 int convertDecimalToOctal(int n);
 int main()
 {
     int binary, decimal, octal;

     printf("Enter Binary Number: ");
     scanf("%d", &binary);

     decimal = convertBinaryToDecimal( binary );
     octal = convertDecimalToOctal( decimal );

     printf("Octal Value= %d\n",octal);

     return 0;
 }

 int convertBinaryToDecimal(int m)
 {
     int dec=0, i=0;

     while(m != 0)
     {
         dec += (m%10) * pow(2,i);
         m /= 10;
         i++;
     }
     return dec;
 }

 int convertDecimalToOctal(int n)
 {
     int oct=0, i=1;

     while(n != 0)
     {
         oct += (n%8) * i;
         n /= 8;
         i *= 10;
     }
     return oct;
 }

If you are using Linux/Unix OS and getting an error then read it “undefined reference to sqrt (or other mathematical functions)” even include math.h header
