I am trying to write a program that sums very big numbers (I am trying to solve a problem on projecteuler.net), so I cannot parse them into number types. So I was wondering if it is possible to sum such numbers using only strings or something like that?
Try using BigInteger instead. It effictively lets you use integers of arbitrary size.
kindly use BigInteger found in System.Numerics and use `
Add(BigInteger, BigInteger)
` please follow the below link for better understanding.
add two bigintegers

This program calculates the expected number of toin cosses until a given sequence will appear. The formula sums powers of two, where powers are those k for which the first k elements of the sequence match the last k elements, in order.
My question is why, when I test it with two different sequences, it only returns one result twice. I assume that it is doing exactly what it looks like and overwriting test1 with test4 when test4 is instanciated, but this code looks to me to be similar to code from smaller exercises that did not have this overwriting behaviour.
This is my second programming course, and my first in C#, neither has been in my mother tongue, so I might be a bit slow with some of the concepts.
I suspect this has to do with one of the lines with public static... (I am not sure how to refer to them) or maybe a protection level. The expectation for test1 should be 38 (2 + 2^2 + 2^5).

It is your use of the static keyword for the local variable in your class. By doin so, you make the variable a part of the type (PlayerSequence) and not the instance of PlayerSequence (test1, test4). Below worked on my machine.

So let me start by saying that I'm a newbie with little to moderate knowledge about C#.
Coming to the topic: I need to make a program that is able to add/subtract very large integers. Initially, used BigInt only to find out it's not allowed. There should be a logical workaround for this? I have an idea which is using "elementary school method" where you add each digit starting from right to left.
I made a string which I split into char array and added each digit from right to left(GetUpperBound-i). But it doesn't seem to work.
My Code:
string s, s2;
char[] c_arr, c_arr2;
int i, erg;
s = "1234";
s2 = "5678";
c_arr = s.ToCharArray();
c_arr2 = s2.ToCharArray();
for (i = 0; i <= c_arr.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
{
erg = c_arr[c_arr.GetUpperBound(0)-i]+c_arr2[c_arr2.GetUpperBound(0)-i];
Console.Write(erg);
}
Console.ReadKey();
There are a few things wrong with your code for the 'elementary school method'. You don't account for carry, you're adding up ascii values rather than actual values between 0-9, and you're outputting the results in the wrong order.
The code below, whilst not very elegant, does produce the correct results:
var s1 = "12345";
var s2 = "5678";
var carry = false;
var result = String.Empty;
if(s1.Length != s2.Length)
{
var diff = Math.Abs(s1.Length - s2.Length);
if(s1.Length < s2.Length)
{
s1 = String.Join("", Enumerable.Repeat("0", diff)) + s1;
}
else
{
s2 = String.Join("", Enumerable.Repeat("0", diff)) + s2;
}
}
for(int i = s1.Length-1;i >= 0; i--)
{
var augend = Convert.ToInt32(s1.Substring(i,1));
var addend = Convert.ToInt32(s2.Substring(i,1));
var sum = augend + addend;
sum += (carry ? 1 : 0);
carry = false;
if(sum > 9)
{
carry = true;
sum -= 10;
}
result = sum.ToString() + result;
}
if(carry)
{
result = "1" + result;
}
Console.WriteLine(result);
The following program can be used to add two large numbers, I have used string builder to store the result. You can add numbers containing digits upto '2,147,483,647'.

I am trying to figure out how to convert roman numerals to integers. This is a portion of my code. When I prompt the user to enter M it shows 1000, but when I prompt the user to enter a roman numeral such as VM, it does not give me 995 but instead 1005. This is because I am telling my program to do just that.
What I am trying to figure out is how I can look ahead and get it to know when it is adding or subtracting roman numerals.
How do I begin to go about doing this?
class Roman
{
public int inprogress = 0;
public Roman(string roman)
{
char temp = 'Z';
int length;
length = roman.Length;
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
{
temp = roman[i];
if (temp == 'M')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 1000;
}
if (temp == 'D')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 500;
}
if (temp == 'C')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 100;
}
if (temp == 'L')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 50;
}
if (temp == 'X')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 10;
}
if (temp == 'V')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 5;
}
if (temp == 'I')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 1;
}
}
}
}
the trick to converting roman numerals is to work backwards (from the end of the string) not forwards, makes it a lot easier.
eg, if you have IX
you start with X, = 10
move back 1.... now its I, I is less than X so now subtract off 1 = 9
A reference solution....
public class RomanNumeral
{
public static int ToInt(string s)
{
var last = 0;
return s.Reverse().Select(NumeralValue).Sum(v =>
{
var r = (v >= last)? v : -v;
last = v;
return r;
});
}
private static int NumeralValue(char c)
{
switch (c)
{
case 'I': return 1;
case 'V': return 5;
case 'X': return 10;
case 'L': return 50;
case 'C': return 100;
case 'D': return 500;
case 'M': return 1000;
}
return 0;
}
}
NOTE: this doesn't validate roman numerals, just convert ones that are already valid.
List<Level> levels = new List<Level>();
int[] val = new int[255];
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
val[(byte)'I'] = 1;
val[(byte)'V'] = 5;
val[(byte)'X'] = 10;
val[(byte)'L'] = 50;
val[(byte)'C'] = 100;
val[(byte)'D'] = 500;
val[(byte)'M'] = 1000;
levels.Clear();
levels.Add(new Level('I', 'V', 'X'));
levels.Add(new Level('X', 'L', 'C'));
levels.Add(new Level('C', 'D', 'M'));
}
int fromRoman(string n)
{
n = n.ToUpper();
var result = 0;
var lastDigit = 0;
for (var pos = n.Length - 1; pos >= 0; pos--)
{
var curDigit = val[(byte)n[pos]];
if (curDigit >= lastDigit)
result += curDigit;
else
result -= curDigit;
lastDigit = curDigit;
}
return result;
}
public class Level
{
public Level(char i, char v, char x)
{
this.i = i;
this.x = x;
this.v = v;
}
public char i;
public char v;
public char x;
}
Then Run
int Result = fromRoman("X");
You need to add logic that basically says that if the V is before the M then subtract it. Based on this line here:
if (temp == 'V')
{
inprogress = inprogress + 5;
How to convert an integer number into its binary representation?
I'm using this code:
String input = "8";
String output = Convert.ToInt32(input, 2).ToString();
But it throws an exception:
Could not find any parsable digits
Your example has an integer expressed as a string. Let's say your integer was actually an integer, and you want to take the integer and convert it to a binary string.
int value = 8;
string binary = Convert.ToString(value, 2);
Which returns 1000.
Convert from any classic base to any base in C#
string number = "100";
int fromBase = 16;
int toBase = 10;
string result = Convert.ToString(Convert.ToInt32(number, fromBase), toBase);
// result == "256"
Supported bases are 2, 8, 10 and 16
Very Simple with no extra code, just input, conversion and output.
using System;
namespace _01.Decimal_to_Binary
{
class DecimalToBinary
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.Write("Decimal: ");
int decimalNumber = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
int remainder;
string result = string.Empty;
while (decimalNumber > 0)
{
remainder = decimalNumber % 2;
decimalNumber /= 2;
result = remainder.ToString() + result;
}
Console.WriteLine("Binary: {0}",result);
}
}
}
http://zamirsblog.blogspot.com/2011/10/convert-decimal-to-binary-in-c.html
public string DecimalToBinary(string data)
{
string result = string.Empty;
int rem = 0;
try
{
if (!IsNumeric(data))
error = "Invalid Value - This is not a numeric value";
else
{
int num = int.Parse(data);
while (num > 0)
{
rem = num % 2;
num = num / 2;
result = rem.ToString() + result;
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
error = ex.Message;
}
return result;
}
primitive way:
public string ToBinary(int n)
{
if (n < 2) return n.ToString();
var divisor = n / 2;
var remainder = n % 2;
return ToBinary(divisor) + remainder;
}
Another alternative but also inline solution using Enumerable and LINQ is:
int number = 25;
string binary = Enumerable.Range(0, (int)Math.Log(number, 2) + 1).Aggregate(string.Empty, (collected, bitshifts) => ((number >> bitshifts) & 1 ) + collected);
Convert.ToInt32(string, base) does not do base conversion into your base. It assumes that the string contains a valid number in the indicated base, and converts to base 10.
So you're getting an error because "8" is not a valid digit in base 2.
String str = "1111";
String Ans = Convert.ToInt32(str, 2).ToString();
Will show 15 (1111 base 2 = 15 base 10)
String str = "f000";
String Ans = Convert.ToInt32(str, 16).ToString();
Will show 61440.
static void convertToBinary(int n)
{
Stack<int> stack = new Stack<int>();
stack.Push(n);
// step 1 : Push the element on the stack
while (n > 1)
{
n = n / 2;
stack.Push(n);
}
// step 2 : Pop the element and print the value
foreach(var val in stack)
{
Console.Write(val % 2);
}
}
I know this answer would look similar to most of the answers already here, but I noticed just about none of them uses a for-loop. This code works, and can be considered simple, in the sense it will work without any special functions, like a ToString() with parameters, and is not too long as well. Maybe some prefer for-loops instead of just while-loop, this may be suitable for them.
public static string ByteConvert (int num)
{
int[] p = new int[8];
string pa = "";
for (int ii = 0; ii<= 7;ii = ii +1)
{
p[7-ii] = num%2;
num = num/2;
}
for (int ii = 0;ii <= 7; ii = ii + 1)
{
pa += p[ii].ToString();
}
return pa;
}

Console.WriteLine("\n{0}\n", e.Message);

{
int d = N;

BCL provided Convert.ToString(n, 2) is good, but in case you need an alternate implementation which is few ticks faster than BCL provided one.
Following custom implementation works for all integers(-ve and +ve).

int j = 0;
char[] output = new char[32];
if (n == 0)
output[j++] = '0';
else
{
int checkBit = 1 << 30;
bool skipInitialZeros = true;
// Check the sign bit separately, as 1<<31 will cause
// +ve integer overflow

This might be helpful if you want a concise function that you can call from your main method, inside your class. You may still need to call int.Parse(toBinary(someint)) if you require a number instead of a string but I find this method work pretty well. Additionally, this can be adjusted to use a for loop instead of a do-while if you'd prefer.
public static string toBinary(int base10)
{
string binary = "";
do {
binary = (base10 % 2) + binary;
base10 /= 2;
}
while (base10 > 0);
return binary;
}
toBinary(10) returns the string "1010".
I came across this problem in a coding challenge where you have to convert 32 digit decimal to binary and find the possible combination of the substring.

This was a interesting read i was looking for a quick copy paste.
I knew i had done this before long ago with bitmath differently.
Here was my take on it.
// i had this as a extension method in a static class (this int inValue);
public static string ToBinaryString(int inValue)
{
string result = "";
for (int bitIndexToTest = 0; bitIndexToTest < 32; bitIndexToTest++)
result += ((inValue & (1 << (bitIndexToTest))) > 0) ? '1' : '0';
return result;
}
You could stick spacing in there with a bit of modulos in the loop.
// little bit of spacing
if (((bitIndexToTest + 1) % spaceEvery) == 0)
result += ' ';
You could probably use or pass in a stringbuilder and append or index directly to avoid deallocations and also get around the use of += this way;
var b = Convert.ToString(i,2).PadLeft(32,'0').ToCharArray().Reverse().ToArray();
Just one line for 8 bit
Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(n, 2).PadLeft(8, '0'));
where n is the number
