Convertidor Decimal a Binario

A Decimal to Binary Converter is a mathematical translation utility used to turn standard numbers (Base-10) into machine code (Base-2). This tool is essential for computer science students, network engineers (subnetting), and anyone learning how CPU registers work understanding the fundamental "On/Off" logic of all digital electronics.

The conversion engine handles the math through a recursive division pipeline:

1. Division: The tool takes your input (e.g., 10) and divides by 2.
   • 10 / 2 = 5 (Remainder 0)
   • 5 / 2 = 2 (Remainder 1)
   • 2 / 2 = 1 (Remainder 0)
   • 1 / 2 = 0 (Remainder 1)
2. Assembly: It reads the remainders in reverse order: 1010.
3. Padding: Optionally, it pads the result to standard bit-widths (4-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit) like 00001010 to simulate Real Memory Registers.
4. Verification: It converts back to ensure the math is perfect.

The History of Base-10 vs Base-2

Why don't computers use 10?

• Humans (10): We have 10 fingers, so Base-10 is natural for us.
• Computers (2): Circuits are easier to build if they only have two states (High Voltage / Low Voltage).
• Claude Shannon (1937): Proved that boolean algebra (True/False) could be mapped to electrical circuits, cementing Binary as the Universal Language of Computing.

Technical Comparison: Number Systems

Understanding the base is vital for IP Addressing.

System	Base	Digits	Example (10)
Binary	2	0-1	1010
Octal	8	0-7	12
Decimal	10	0-9	10
Hex	16	0-F	A

By using this tool, you ensure your Network Math is error-free.

Security and Privacy Considerations

Your calculation is performed in a secure, local environment:

• Local Logical Execution: All math is performed locally in your browser. Your numbers never touch our servers.
• Zero Log Policy: We do not store or track your inputs. Your Homework and Subnet Calculations remain entirely confidential.
• W3C Security Compliance: The tool operates within the standard browser sandbox, ensuring no interaction with your local file system or Private Metadata.
• Privacy First: To maintain absolute Data Privacy, the tool functions as an anonymous utility.

How It's Tested

We provide a high-fidelity engine that is verified against IEEE 754 standards.

1. The "Zero" Pass:
   • Action: Input 0.
   • Expected: Result is 0 (or 00000000).
2. The "Max Int" Check:
   • Action: Input 255.
   • Expected: Result is 11111111 (8 ones).
3. The "Negative" Verification:
   • Action: Input -5.
   • Expected: Shows either the raw conversion (with sign) or the Two's Complement representation depending on mode.
4. The "Fraction" Defense:
   • Action: Input 10.5.
   • Expected: The tool either rounds or calculates fixed-point binary 1010.1.
