JavaScript program to take in a binary number as a string and returns its numerical equivalent in base 10
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in a binary number as a string and returns its numerical equivalent in base 10. Therefore, let’s write the code for the function.
This one is quite simple, we iterate over the string using a for loop and for each passing bit, we double the number with adding the current bit value to it like this −
Example
const binaryToDecimal = binaryStr => { let num = 0; for(let i = 0; i < binaryStr.length; i++){ num *= 2; num += Number(binaryStr[i]); }; return num; }; console.log(binaryToDecimal('1101')); console.log(binaryToDecimal('1101000')); console.log(binaryToDecimal('10101'));
Output
The output in the console will be −
13 104 21
