    Question binary

    hi!
    I need to write a progam that will convert a number to binary.
    Example
    user enters number between 0 and 15
    output is the value of the number returned to screen
    and then the output in binary returned to the screen

    thank you!

    Here's one solution -

    #include <iostream>
    #include <bitset>

    using namespace std;

    Code:
    #include <iostream> 
    #include <bitset>
    
    using namespace std;
    
    int main() 
    { 
    
        int i =0;
    
        do
        {
            cin >>i;
        }while (i<0 || i>15);
    
        //need four bits to represent 0-15
    
        bitset <4> j = i;
        cout << i << " = " << j << endl;
    
    
        return 0;
    } 
    However, if this is a homework assignment then I doubt that this will be the answer you're looking for. Let's see what you've done so far.
