Good stuff Jason. Your enthusiasm amazes me.!!

Would be even sweeter if you could add a clear button

 

[AtomSoft]

Just type a 0 in the decimal box

 

[AtomSoft]

The next version will have 64Bit number in a couple days

 

[AtomSoft]

I couldnt wait. It only took 10 min to convert original to 64 bit heh

 

[AtomSoft]

will be making the new version in a couple days still this time it will allow you to TYPE binary and convert. Also convert from all to ASCII!!!!

Grump ON: If you can not do bin to hex and hex to bin in your head you should use your time learning to do that instead !

Grump OFF:


I would space the HEX char to align with the binary it represents. Notice the bits are in groups of 8 with a single space between the hi and low nyble.

0010 1010  1111 0111
___2 ___A  ___F ___7

Looking at it this will cause you to learn the conversions too.

EDIT: Cisco has made it into a arcade game.

Thanks for the tip! heh

Have a look at my program Atom, it is pretty well refined and there might be some features there you could add to yours (or give you ideas).

[AtomSoft]

Nice!! Thanks. Im looking now. I will definitly add some features i see heh like binary separation by nyble or byte and hex seperation

The calculator in Windows 7 has a 'programmer' mode with 64bit binary seperated out by nibbles.

If you have Win XP, you can download the Microsoft CalcPlus calculator.

The thing that I went for in my converter was instant use. Even the dos one I wrote so many years ago had the same basic functionality, you can type or edit data in any of the 3 windows and press enter, and it is all instantly converted in all the windows. A calculator type won;t have that speed.

I also made the windows version very small as a single .exe file so it opens instantly (from a taskbar icon) and can be used instantly. Instant means < 0.5 seconds. I hate programs that take seconds to start up like a lot of that crap people make with .NET framework etc.
