[ACCEPTED]-How to convert a decimal base (10) to a negabinary base (-2)?-base-conversion
Accepted answer
The algorithm is described in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_base#Calculation. Basically, you 3 just pick the remainder as the positive 2 base case and make sure the remainder is 1 nonnegative and minimal.
7 = -3*-2 + 1 (least significant digit)
-3 = 2*-2 + 1
2 = -1*-2 + 0
-1 = 1*-2 + 1
1 = 0*-2 + 1 (most significant digit)
def neg2dec(arr):
n = 0
for i, num in enumerate(arr[::-1]):
n+= ((-2)**i)*num
return n
def dec2neg(num):
if num == 0:
digits = ['0']
else:
digits = []
while num != 0:
num, remainder = divmod(num, -2)
if remainder < 0:
num, remainder = num + 1, remainder + 2
digits.append(str(remainder))
return ''.join(digits[::-1])
0
Just my two cents (C#):
public static int[] negaBynary(int value)
{
List<int> result = new List<int> ();
while (value != 0)
{
int remainder = value % -2;
value = value / -2;
if (remainder < 0)
{
remainder += 2;
value += 1;
}
Console.WriteLine (remainder);
result.Add(remainder);
}
return result.ToArray();
}
0
There is a method (attributed to Librik/Szudzik/Schröppel) that 3 is much more efficient:
uint64_t negabinary(int64_t num) {
const uint64_t mask = 0xAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA;
return (mask + num) ^ mask;
}
The conversion 2 method and its reverse are described in 1 more detail in this answer.
Here is some code that solves it and display 2 the math behind it. Some code taken from 1 "Birender Singh"
#https://onlinegdb.com/xR1E5Cj7L
def neg2dec(arr):
n = 0
for i, num in enumerate(arr[::-1]):
n+= ((-2)**i)*num
return n
def dec2neg(num):
oldNum = num
if num == 0:
digits = ['0']
else:
digits = []
while num != 0:
num, remainder = divmod(num, -10)
if remainder < 0:
num, remainder = num + 1, remainder + 10
print(str(oldNum) + " = " + str(num) + " * -10 + " + str(remainder))
oldNum = num
digits.append(str(remainder))
return ''.join(digits[::-1])
print(dec2neg(-8374932))
Output:
-8374932 = 837494 * -10 + 8
837494 = -83749 * -10 + 4
-83749 = 8375 * -10 + 1
8375 = -837 * -10 + 5
-837 = 84 * -10 + 3
84 = -8 * -10 + 4
-8 = 1 * -10 + 2
1 = 0 * -10 + 1
