Python Programming Built-in Functions

Decimal is the most widely used number system. However, computers can only understand binary. The binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems are closely related, and we may need to convert decimal to these systems.10Base (ten symbols 0-9Used to represent numbers), similarly, binary is based on2Base, octal is8Base, hexadecimal is16.

Numbers with prefixes 0b are considered binary, 0o octal, and 0x hexadecimal. For example:

60 = 0b11100 = 0o74　= 0x3c

Source Code

# Python program to convert decimal to other number systems
dec =　344
print("Decimal value", dec, "Can be converted to:")
print(bin(dec), "Binary.")
print(oct(dec), "Octal.")
print(hex(dec), "Hexadecimal.")

Output Result

Decimal value　344　Can be converted to:
0b101011000 Binary.
0o530 Octal.
0x158　Hexadecimal.

Note:To test other decimal numbers in the program, please change the value of dec in the program.

In this program, we use the built-in functions bin(), oct(), and hex() to convert the given decimal number to the corresponding number system.

These functions use integers (decimal) and return strings.
