DEC2OCT(number, places)
- Where 'number' is the decimal number to be converted, and
- 'places' is the number of characters to display the output.
DEC2OCT() is used to convert decimal number to its octal equivalent.
Description
DEC2OCT(number, places)
- The 'number' can be up to 20 digits (i.e. in-between -99999999999999999999 and -99999999999999999999).
- Output is a 30 bit number. The most significant bit is the sign bit and remaining bits are magnitude bits.
- If 'number' is negative, Calci ignores the places and returns a 10 character (30 bit) octal number.
- 'places' argument can be omitted. Then, Calci displays the octal output with minimum number of characters necessary.
- 'places' is used for padding the output with leading '0's'.
For Example,
DEC2OCT(68,3) returns 104
DEC2OCT(99) returns 0000000143
DEC2OCT(99.45) returns 0000000143
- Calci displays an error message, if the 'number' is an invalid decimal number.
- If the 'number' is not an integer, Calci considers the integer part, and displays the output.
- Calci ignores the 'places', if the output is more than mentioned 'places'.
- Calci ignores the 'places', if the 'places' is non-numeric or negative.
- If 'places' is not an integer, Calci truncates the 'places' value.
| Function | Octal Output |
| DEC2OCT(512) | 0000001000 |
| DEC2OCT(512,3) | 1000 |
| DEC2OCT(2378,-4) | 4512 |
| DEC2OCT(7878.78) | 0000017306 |
| DEC2OCT("-364") | 7777777224 |
