Frequently Asked Questions

Can I paste binary numbers with spaces between bytes?

Yes. Any spacing, grouping, or underscores between digits are automatically sanitized so you can paste grouped bytes directly.

How does the converter calculate the decimal value?

Each binary digit is multiplied by 2 raised to its positional power from right to left (2^0, 2^1, 2^2, etc.), and the sum yields the decimal integer.

What happens if I enter characters other than 0 or 1?

The validator alerts you immediately and highlights the invalid character positions so you can correct your input.
