Introduction

C++ is one of the principal programming languages as it is the necessary step to learn how to ‘code’. Students are expected to learn C++ thoroughly before other programming languages such as Java, CSS, etc., are introduced through their curriculum. Coding in C++ primarily involves using functions, classes, processing strings and arrays of data input and output.

Decimal numbers are the common integers that we use in our daily lives. The decimal numbers have a base of 10, as 10 possible digits are ranging from 0,1,2 … 9. Decimal numbers are convenient for usage in our daily lives, but a machine/computer cannot directly process decimal numbers through its CPU. Binary numbers are a set of 0s and 1s that can be processed by the computer system, as it forms the machine language.

These numbers are arranged in unique configurations that correlate to numbers, letters, special characters, or other fundamental information. The base of these binary numbers is ‘2’, as the only digits it contains are 0 and 1. For eg. 0010 (Binary number) = 2 (Decimal number).
