CERTIFICATE
This is to certify that the project work entitled “BINARY
CONVERTER” for has been carried out by Archit Gupta,
Student of the Class XII A in order to fulfill the required
curriculum of the course “Computer Science Project Work”.

This project is result of his continuous hard work and

determination. He has worked very sincerely and honestly
under my supervision and guidance.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

My heartful gratitude and thanks to Almighty God, my parents

and other family members and friends without whose unsustained
support, I could not have made this career in.

I wish to place on my record my deep sense of gratitude to

my project guide, Mrs.Monika Rohilla, PGT (Computer Science)
for his constant motivation and valuable help through the project
work.

Finally I would like to thank my friends for their cooperation to

complete this project.

Introduction to Project:

This project entitled “BINARY CONVERTER” is basically

designed in C++ language.
It is used to convert the characters, strings or integers into its
binary equivalent.

Selected Software:

- C++

TESTING
SYSTEM TESTING

During system testing the system is used experimentally used to

ensure that the software does not fail, i.e., it will run according to its
specification and in the way the users expect. Special test data are
input for processing and the results examined. A limited number of
users may be allowed to use the system to see whether they try to use
it in unforeseen ways. It is preferable to discover any surprises before
the organization implements the system.

IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION

Implementations is the process of having systems personnel

checkout and put new equipment into use, train employee, installs the
new application and construct any files of data needed to use it.
Evaluation of the system is performed to identify its strengths
and weakness.

Conclusion:

Finally we have got the conversion of characters,

integers, and strings of characters into its binary
equivalent.

Scope for Expansion:

In future we may include octal conversion and

hexadecimal conversion in the following project.
