sory, I can't post any code as my sample... i don't have any idea on how to get binary number from any character that we entered through java. i'm using jdk 6.0

Character entered where?

maybe, it'll be somthing like this...

 public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		int[] intList = new int[3];
		int index;

		System.out.println("Line 4: Enter 3 integers.");

		for (index  = 0; index < 3; index++)
			intList[index] = console.nextInt();
	 }

Every data insert into arrays, i want to convert it to binary numbers. do u know how?

Have a look at Class Scanner

Here is how you can do it in java by using toBinaryString() function:

	int n; in this case n is an integer

	String by = Integer.toBinaryString(n);  //to convert integer to binary

	String hex = Integer.toHexString(n); //to convert integer to hexadecimal
	 
	String oct = Integer.toOctalString(n);  //to convert integer to octal

hope that helps, good luck in your program

thanks ayman_mastermind,

it helps me a lot... but what should i do if i don't want my system to only convert integer. i want it to convert characters too.

A character is represented by a number, it's called an ascii-value and is a 7-bit binary number. So what you should do if you wanna convert a character is to determine its ascii-value and then you convert that number into binary.

		System.out.print (value % 2);
	}

hey guys!

thanks a lot for your help. i did it!

Gloin, your tips helped me to found the solution. tq! and u guys sample codes really help me to start manipulating them. i can't thanks u guys ryte now. i don't know why... but, it's enough for me to say thanks

THUMBS UP!!
