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 in-between -536870912 and 536870911, else Calci displays a #NUM! error.
- 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'.
- A number preceding with '0' (e.g. 0377) should be written in text format ("0377") to avoid confusion with octal numbers.
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.

DEC2OCT(2378,-4) | 4512 |
DEC2OCT(7878.78) | 0000017306 |
