decimal to binary conversion

[yodu123]

i just start using Turing. i never used any programing language before and i kinda need some tips on how i can made a conversion from decimals to binary....and also how i can take a number from a textbox (GUI.createtextbox) to be converted into binary digit... appreciate ur help

If you can avoid using the turing GUI at all costs.

Secondly as to your first problem, how would you convert a base 10 number into a base 2 using a pen and paper if you are unaware, and to save me time from typing read the following: http://math.about.com/od/calculuslessons/a/changebase.htm

Google is your friend for further investigation.

i know how to do it on a paper but i have to make a program which converts in order to make a calculator

Use math in a for loop. Not that div does division with the decimal cut off, and mod does the remainder after division.

If you know how to do it on paper, you should be able to convert that to a working program. If not, try and tell us what you're getting confused with.

Binary is pretty simple for finding numbers
exapmle 0011 0011 = 51 how do I know this?

the following is a crappy version of a binary table
128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 - 8bit
-------------------------
0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 -binary number
ok so really it's simple for every number thats one add the binary number on the table.
1+2+16+32 = 51 not hard right?

now if you have a number bigger then 128, this would get more complicated but <-(Sorry about that) here is example 2 how to change a number to binary
lets use for example 83 not what you want to do is take the largest number on the binary table and add 1 underneath I will now give you the binary of 83,

0101 0011 (83-64=19-16=3-2=1-1=0)
