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...

Mathematics

MATHEMATICS           Mathematics is the science that deals with shapes, quantities and arrangements. Archmedes is known as the father of Mathematics (287BC-212BC). Mathematics seek and use patterns to formulates new conjuctures.They resove truth or false by using mathematical proof. Mathematics developed by counting, calculation, Measurements, Shapes and motion of physical objects.  Definition Mathematics has no general accepted definition. Until 18th century Aristotle defined mathematics as "the science of quantity". Many mathematicans take no interest in definition they simply say "Mathematics is what Mathematican do". Three leading definition of mathematics today are logicist, intutionist, and formalist. Logicist - In terms of Benjamin peirce, the definition of mathematics in terms of logic are "the science that draws necessary conclusion" and also said that " All mathematics is symbolic logic" by Mathematician Rusell. Intutionist - L.E.J.Bro...
