C program to check if a number is binary or not

C program to check if a number is binary or not 

#include <stdio.h>

int isBinary(int num) {
    while (num != 0) {
        if (num % 10 > 1) {
            return 0;
        }
        num /= 10;
    }
    return 1;
}

int main() {
    int num;

    printf("Enter a number: ");
    scanf("%d", &num);

    if (isBinary(num)) {
        printf("%d is a binary number.\n", num);
    } else {
        printf("%d is not a binary number.\n", num);
    }

    return 0;
}

Explanation : 
This program defines a function isBinary that takes an integer num as input and returns 1 if num is a binary number, and 0 otherwise. The function checks each digit of the number by dividing it by 10 and checking if the remainder is greater than 1. If any digit is greater than 1, the function returns 0, indicating that num is not a binary number. If all digits are less than or equal to 1, the function returns 1, indicating that num is a binary number.

In the main function, the program prompts the user to enter a number and then calls the isBinary function to check if the number is binary. Depending on the result, the program prints a message to the console indicating whether the number is binary or not.


Sample output: 

Here's an example output of the program for the input of the number 10101010:

Enter a number: 10101010
10101010 is a binary number.

And here's an example output of the program for the input of the number 1234:

Enter a number: 1234
1234 is not a binary number.

Introduction to C Programs

INTRODUCTION The programming language ‘C’ was developed by Dennis Ritchie in the early 1970s at Bell Laboratories. Although C was first developed for writing system software, today it has become such a famous language that a various of software programs are written using this language. The main advantage of using C for programming is that it can be easily used on different types of computers. Many other programming languages such as C++ and Java are also based on C which means that you will be able to learn them easily in the future. Today, C is mostly used with the UNIX operating system. Structure of a C program A C program contains one or more functions, where a function is defined as a group of statements that perform a well-defined task.The program defines the structure of a C program. The statements in a function are written in a logical series to perform a particular task. The most important function is the main() function and is a part of every C program. Rather, the execution o...

Performance

Performance ( Optional ) * The I/O system is a main factor in overall system performance, and can place heavy loads on other main components of the system ( interrupt handling, process switching, bus contention, memory access and CPU load for device drivers just to name a few. ) * Interrupt handling can be relatively costly ( slow ), which causes programmed I/O to be faster than interrupt driven I/O when the time spent busy waiting is not excessive. * Network traffic can also loads a heavy load on the system. Consider for example the sequence of events that occur when a single character is typed in a telnet session, as shown in figure( And the fact that a similar group of events must happen in reverse to echo back the character that was typed. ) Sun uses in-kernel threads for the telnet daemon, improving the supportable number of simultaneous telnet sessions from the hundreds to the thousands.   fig: Intercomputer communications. * Rather systems use front-end processor...

HEAT AND THERMODYNAMICS

Heat: * Temperature is the thermal state of the body, that chooses the direction of flow of heat.  * “Heat is a form of energy transfer between two systems or a system and its surroundings due to temperature difference between them.  Specific heat capacity  * Specific heat capacity of a substance is determined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of the substance through 1K. Its unit is J kg^–1K^–1. * The specific heat capacity of water is the highest for any substance, 4180 J/kg K. It is 30 times the specific heat capacity  of mercury which is about 140J/kg K.  Specific Latent Heat  Specific Latent Heat of fusion of any substance is the quantity of heat energy needed to melt one kilogram of a substance without change in temperature. The symbol used is L. The unit for specific  latent heat is Joule/kilogram or J/kg  The Gas Laws  * Boyle’s Law  “Temperature remaining constant, the pressure of a given mass of ...
