Python Program to Convert Decimal to Binary Using Recursion

In this program, you will learn to convert decimal number to binary using recursive function

To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following Python programming topics:

Decimal number is converted into binary by dividing the number successively by 2 and printing the remainder in reverse order.

How to convert decimal to binary?

Source Code

# Function to print binary number using recursion
def convertToBinary(n):
   if n > 1:
       convertToBinary(n//2)
   print(n % 2,end = '')

# decimal number
dec = 34

convertToBinary(dec)
print()

Output

100010

You can change the variable dec in the above program and run it to test out for other values.

This program works only for whole numbers. It doesn't work for real numbers having fractional values such as: 25.5, 45.64 and so on. We encourage you to create Python program that converts decimal numbers to binary for all real numbers on your own.

  Data Types in Python Primarily there are following data types in Python. Integers (<class 'int'>): Used to store integers Floating point numbers (<class 'float'>): Used to store decimal or floating-point numbers Strings (<class 'str'>): Used to store strings Booleans (<class 'bool'>): Used to store True/False type values None: None is a literal to describe 'Nothing' in Python  Rules for defining a variable in Python: A variable name can contain alphabets, digits, and underscores (_). For E.g. : demo_xyz = ‘It’s a string variable’ A variable name can only start with an alphabet and underscore. It can't start with a digit. 5aman   is illegal and not allowed No white-space is allowed to be used inside a variable name. Also, reserved keywords are not recommended to be used as variable names. Examples of few valid variable names are  aman ,  _demo ,  de_mo , etc. Python is a fantastic language that automatically identifie...

  Python Program to Find the Largest Among Three Numbers In this program, you'll learn to find the largest among three numbers using if else and display it. To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following    Python programming topics: Python if...else Statement Python Input, Output and Import In the program below, the three numbers are stored in  num1 ,  num2  and  num3  respectively. We've used the  if...elif...else  ladder to find the largest among the three and display it. Source Code # Python program to find the largest number among the three input numbers # change the values of num1, num2 and num3 # for a different result num1 = 10 num2 = 14 num3 = 12 # uncomment following lines to take three numbers from user #num1 = float(input("Enter first number: ")) #num2 = float(input("Enter second number: ")) #num3 = float(input("Enter third number: ")) if (num1 >= num2) and (num1 >= num3): l...

  Python Functions In this article, you'll learn about functions, what a function is, the syntax, components, and types of functions. Also, you'll learn to create a function in Python. What is a function in Python? In Python, a function is a group of related statements that performs a specific task. Functions help break our program into smaller and modular chunks. As our program grows larger and larger, functions make it more organized and manageable. Furthermore, it avoids repetition and makes the code reusable. Syntax of Function def function_name(parameters): """docstring""" statement(s) Above shown is a function definition that consists of the following components. Keyword  def  that marks the start of the function header. A function name to uniquely identify the function. Function naming follows the same  rules of writing identifiers in Python. Parameters (arguments) through which we pass values to a function. They are optional. A colon (:) ...
