- paulddraper 10y ago> conversion to/from character code is easier (1) How often do you convert from machine integers to binary character representations? (2) If you're referring to for(j = 0; j < bitlen; j++) { bin[j] = (i & 1) ? '1': '0'; i >>= 1; } that's the exact same for a negabinary machine.
- jonsen 10y agoI meant to/from numbers in text form. Usually decimal.
