Binary Add and Substraction

harshchandra -2 Tallied Votes 599 Views Share

This program takes two decimal number from the user and a operator for addition or substraction.it displays the binary equivalent of both number and also the added or substracted binary number .

Code doesn't seem to be very portable!
What is your compiler and operating system?

sir please write a c program for addition and subtraction for "SIGNED BINARY NUMBERS"

This code looks like it is meant for an embedded processor, unless they have the correct compiler for the processor and the correct programmer this code is as much use as toilet paper.

it's not embedded, it's TurboC.

yes, it is toilet paper. and now, after two years, you just floated it back to the top of the bowl. Thanks :-/

I was expecting someone to explain him the problems about his code. Ah well ...

Hi harshchandra,
Thank you for presenting your code snippet but your code has some major faults, hence lost it's appeal. Your program displays the bad practices of C. They are as follows

  • conio.h - It is not a standard C header file and is only used in old MS-DOS compilers. You can see about it here
  • void main() - Let's just say 'void main'ers are doomed' (-Salem)
  • goto - There are a lot of alternatives to goto . It is against structured programming
  • getch() & clrscr() come under conio.h, so no need to repeat

This is an excellent link about the bad practices of C (explaining WHY they are bad) and what to do to avoid them.

Then can you explain why you need the piece of code "gotoxy(1,6)" if it is not intended for embedded processors. This piece code is usually used to place the character on an say a 2x16 LCD.

It's very likely that chandra will take your advice and answer your questions when he comes back.
The code was posted in 2004 and his last activity was in february of 2007, but I'm sure it will be soon. :confused:

>> can explain why you need the piece of code "gotoxy(1,6)"

It's an ancient function from Turbo C++ and is used to put the cursor on a (x,y) position on the screen.
Now please stop reviving these old threads. You can safely assume that if a thread is older then 2 weeks, it's dead.
