I know this answer would look similar to most of the answers already here  but I noticed just about none of them uses a for-loop  This code works  and can be considered simple  in the sense it will work without any special functions  like a ToString   with parameters  and is not too long as well  Maybe some prefer for-loops instead of just while-loop  this may be suitable for them   public static string ByteConvert  int num        int   p   new int 8       string pa           for  int ii   0  ii lt   7 ii   ii  1                p 7-ii    num 2          num   num 2            for  int ii   0 ii  lt   7  ii   ii   1                pa    p ii  ToString              return pa

Convert ToInt32 string  base  does not do base conversion into your base  It assumes that the string contains a valid number in the indicated base  and converts to base 10   So you re getting an error because  8  is not a valid digit in base 2   String str    1111   String Ans   Convert ToInt32 str  2  ToString      Will show 15  1111 base 2   15 base 10   String str    f000   String Ans   Convert ToInt32 str  16  ToString      Will show 61440

Another alternative but also inline solution using Enumerable and LINQ is    int number   25   string binary   Enumerable Range 0   int  Math Log number  2    1  Aggregate string Empty   collected  bitshifts    gt    number  gt  gt  bitshifts   amp  1    collected

Very Simple with no extra code  just input  conversion and output   using System   namespace  01 Decimal to Binary       class DecimalToBinary               static void Main string   args                        Console Write  Decimal                  int decimalNumber   int Parse Console ReadLine                  int remainder              string result   string Empty              while  decimalNumber  gt  0                                remainder   decimalNumber   2                  decimalNumber    2                  result   remainder ToString     result                            Console WriteLine  Binary    0   result

This was a interesting read i was looking for a quick copy paste  I knew i had done this before long ago with bitmath differently  Here was my take on it     i had this as a extension method in a static class  this int inValue    public static string ToBinaryString int inValue        string result    quot  quot       for  int bitIndexToTest   0  bitIndexToTest  lt  32  bitIndexToTest            result      inValue  amp   1  lt  lt   bitIndexToTest     gt  0     1     0       return result     You could stick spacing in there with a bit of modulos in the loop             little bit of spacing         if    bitIndexToTest   1    spaceEvery     0              result          You could probably use or pass in a stringbuilder and append or index directly to avoid deallocations and also get around the use of      this way

This might be helpful if you want a concise function that you can call from your main method  inside your class  You may still need to call int Parse toBinary someint   if you require a number instead of a string but I find this method work pretty well  Additionally  this can be adjusted to use a for loop instead of a do-while if you d prefer       public static string toBinary int base10                string binary               do               binary    base10   2    binary              base10    2                    while  base10  gt  0            return binary          toBinary 10  returns the string  1010
