How to Convert from Decimal to Octal in Golang 1.20
In this video we are going to generate source code for the GoLang Program, How to Convert from Decimal to Octal using chatGPT.
After generating we will verify and run the generated code.
IMPORTANT NOTE on SOURCE CODE: only source code that are acceptable by the youtube description box will be displayed.
##############SOURCE CODE#########################
package main
import "fmt"
func decimalToOctal(decimal int) string {
octal := ""
for decimal > 0 {
remainder := decimal % 8
octal = fmt.Sprintf("%d%s", remainder, octal)
decimal /= 8
}
return octal
}
func main() {
decimal := 7865
octal := decimalToOctal(decimal)
fmt.Printf("Decimal %d is equivalent to octal %s", decimal, octal)
}
Below is the explanation for the program:
The decimalToOctal function takes an integer parameter decimal and returns its octal representation as a string.
It does this by repeatedly dividing decimal by 8 and keeping track of the remainders, which are concatenated to the beginning of the octal string using the fmt.Sprintf function.
In the main function, we call decimalToOctal with the decimal value 123, and print the result using the fmt.Printf function.
You can change the value of decimal to convert any other decimal number to octal.
