Hi Bob,

what about itoa?  where the 3rd parm is the radix.  when radix = 2 the
output string contains a binary string.
  int nVlu ;
  char sResult[256] ;
  char* pResult ;
  nVlu = 25 ;
  pResult = itoa( nVlu, sResult, 2 ) ;

Jerry,
As Hans pointed out strtol (or strtoll for larger numbers) converts from
binary notation 101101 to decimal, but did you ever find a way to go
backwards? I have an old RPGIII grunt method technique that I've been using
for 10 years, but I'd rather find a simpler method. Just wondering.

For conversion of numbers in base 2 to decimal, try the C run-time
library function "strtol()". Here's an example:

------------------------------------------------------------------
H dftactgrp(*no) bnddir('QC2LE')
D strtol          pr            10i 0 extproc('strtol')
D   nptr                          *   value options(*string)
D   endptr                        *   value
D   base                        10i 0 value
D ptr             s               *
  /free
     dsply (strtol('1': %addr(ptr): 2));
     dsply (strtol('10': %addr(ptr): 2));
     dsply (strtol('11': %addr(ptr): 2));
     dsply (strtol('100': %addr(ptr): 2));
     dsply (strtol('10010101': %addr(ptr): 2));
     *inlr = *on;
  /end-free
------------------------------------------------------------------

Cheers! Hans
