Java Program to Convert Decimal to Octal (updated)

Java Program to Convert Decimal to Octal (updated) – In Computer Science, generally Octal number system used to store big data values. In this post, we will develop a Java program to convert the decimal value to an octal value.

Decimal Octal
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5
6 6
7 7
8 10
9 11
10 12

In Octal number system 8 and 9 are not available because their base is 8.

Procedure to develop a method to convert decimal to octal,
1) Take a decimal number
2) Declare octal, remainder, multiplier, and iteration variables

Java Program to Convert Decimal to Octal

import java.util.Scanner;

public class DecimalToOctal {
  private static int toOctal(int decimal) {

     // declare variables
     int octal = 0;
     int remainder = 0;
     int multiplier = 0;
     int i = 0;

     while (decimal!=0) {
        // find remainder after
        // dividing by 8
        remainder = decimal % 8;

        // calculate multiplier value
        multiplier = (int) Math.pow(10, i);

        // increase octal value
        octal += (remainder * multiplier);
        // divide decimal value by 8
        decimal /= 8;

        // increase i value by 1
        i++;
     }
     return octal;
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
     // declare variables
     int decimal = 0;
     int octal = 0;

     // create Scanner class object
     Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

     // read inputs
     System.out.print("Enter decimal number:: ");
     decimal = scan.nextInt();

     // convert decimal to octal
     octal = toOctal(decimal);

     // display result
     System.out.println("Octal value = "
                            + octal);

     // close Scanner class object
     scan.close();
  }
}

OUTPUT


Enter decimal number:: 8
Octal value = 10
