Understanding Number Systems and Binary Conversion in Python

[Music] welcome back aliens my name is Naveen ready and let's continue with the series

on Python now in this video we'll talk about binary formats in fact not just vanity we'll talk about different number

systems normally when you work in the programming world we work with money format and we work with decimal system

so in the programming world we use a binary system and a decimal system but apart from this we have two more system

which is octal and hexadecimal now when do we use all this stuff so they're talking field we use MAC address right

which is normally defined in hexadecimal format same goes for ipv6 which is defined in accessible format in your

computer via a format in in normal system we use decimal system so let's understand how do we convert this values

from one system to other system now of course you can do it on paper and you can or you can do it in a software or we

use with the help of codes now before understanding how do you convert this using Python let's try it on paper first

you know we can in fact we can do it so if I open my ideally you can convert a number from decimal to binary format

example if I if I want to convert a number let's say 25 so we have this number 25 I want to convert this into a

body format now I don't know how many people of you how many of you know how to convert a number the body format so

people who are very big no to the programming well they might not be knowing it and if you have experience

that's great now if you don't know how money for my two works I would recommend you to go and watch some videos on money

format all will try to do some in this video let's say I want to convert this we can use a function called as bin so

using big functions we can convert a number from decimal system to panel system now when you say decimal system

it means the base of the system is 10 and in balanced system the base is 2 which means in decimal system we can go

from 0 to 9 so we have 10 digits in balanced system we can go from 0 to 1 2 digits and that's why we say its bits

binary digits right so we have one in format there in fact we have octal system where we have eight digits so it

starts with zero and it ends at 7 on the other hand we have hexadecimal system where we have 16 as a base now it starts

with 0 it goes till 9:00 and after night it goes from A to F so in total we have 16

so now let's come back from decimal to binary we'll click on enter you can see this is your money format it's so simple

you just need to use our function and in package up to pass 25 but hold on how do you convert this number and even if you

so even if you get this output how do you know this is a this is a correct output so let me just take some time to

explain you how to convert a number from a decimal system tobin a system so for that let me open my paint so let's try

to understand how it works so let's say we have a number 25 see we'll go for number 25 here and if I want to find a

decimal for a body format of this 25 whatever it is you have to divide this number by 2 so whatever system you have

so example if you want to convert from decimal to octal decimal to hexadecimal system you divide divide here to divide

this number by that systems example here I want to find one in format so I will divide this by 2 now everyone knows

right so it is 2 into 12 you will get 24 so the defender is 1 so when you say 2 into 12 we call it 24

and the remainder is 1 you have to continue this so you have to say to you will get 6

so 2 into 6 you will get 12 so the remainder is 0 then we have 2 into 3 the remainder is 0 again and then we got 2

into 1 which is amenda is what in this case because 2 into 1 is 2 and then 3 minus 2 is 1 now this is your numbers

you know so this is your money format so this is how you convert from decimal to binary format but how do we read this so

we have to read this in a reverse order so you have to start from this and then you have to go to top so which is in

this case this is 1 then we have this is 1 0 0 1 so this is a binary format of 25 so these are you this is how you convert

a number from the symbol system to manage money format it's so simple let me go back to the idea here and here

what I will do is so this you can see the number here we call it 1 1 0 0 1 the same number but what is before that you

can see we called 0 and B that's how you represent a binary format so if you want to say there's a number which is 1 1 0 0

1 and you might be thinking if you've got this number this may be decimal right so to specify that hey this is not

a decimal we will use 0b okay that's very important in fact you can convert a

number from binary system to decimal system it's very easy just say it's 0b I will use a number which is 1 0 1 0 1 in

this case which is actually a number five right so I will say enter you can see we got five so before the number

before the ballet format if you put zero P that means your the number is 1 in format and it will give you the output

in decimal format we do the same thing for octal right so example it's got the same number I will say o which function

we have to use our you can guess right so for Manatee we have been four octal it should be opt right and then we will

give a number which is 25 I will say enter now this is octal format so the octal conversion of 25 is 31 but what is

before that it's 0 oh so o is octal right so in the above case we have B that's for binary the same thing can be

done with hexadecimal so I will say hex and I want to find 25 so I will Center you can see this 0 x1 9 and that's very

important which is X here so X is 4 hexadecimal number right in fact I will just try to find the hex of 10 so X of

10 is a right so if I Center you can see we got 0 X a you can do the same thing in reverse order you can say 0 X maybe I

want to find maybe F so in this case F is 15 so if I say enter you got 15 in fact in the subsequent videos which we

are going to see we will be working with different operators like bitwise operator and this video is very

important for the bitwise operators make sure you know how to convert a decimal number into binary format and for that

let me give you some assignments of what you can do is try to convert not on the Python command prompt okay let me do it

by yourself so try to find the panel format of lecture 31 then try to so this is your homework okay so try to find out

bunny format of 21 then 52 then 65 so these are some numbers you can try it out and then you can also do reverse

okay so let's see if I give you binary format I have a number which is 0 B and let's say this is number I don't know

what's the decimal format of this you have to find this as well so in this case it is 4 1 0 but how can we know

that so in that case you can do this in reverse order as well so the number was one one zero zero one one zero one

zero so how do you convert this number to decimal system so first let's try with this number and then you can try

with this number by yourself now when you only want to convert a number from binary to decimal is very

simple take the start on the last number so start with the last number and use two days to zero second last number two

days to one so we have to go for two s two two s two three and two days to four right now this so this number belongs to

one particular number here so for this one we have 2 X 2 4 for this one we have 2 3 right now ignore all the zeros here

because we don't need them focus on your own once so what you will do is first you will find 2 X 2 0 is what toys 0 is

1 2 is to 1 is to 2 it should 2 is 4 okay first of all we don't need these two

numbers right because those are zeros anyway then to 3 is 8 2 days 2 4 is 16 and then once you've got this number I

just need to add them so you can see 16 plus 8 which is 24 24 plus 1 we got 25 so first you have to use this format and

then you have to add all the values you will get DJ's will format the same thing can be done with this you try it out on

your machine and let me know if you have done that so that's it everyone that's how you can you can work with different

number system in Python so I hope you enjoyed this video in the comment section so that's it everyone

bye bye you
