Binary to decimal using recursion

Question

0 个投票

Hello, I'm trying to figure out how to write a function that will convert binary to decimal using recursion. BA is a 1 x n array of binary digits

function y = Bin2dec(BA)
n = length(BA);
if n == 1
    y = BA;
else
    y = Bin2dec(BA(n-1));
end

but I can't figure out the recursive part

Hi Rick,

You're aware of the MATLAB built in bin2dec function ain't u?

I've no idea if it's possible to call "Bin2dec" function from "Bin2dec" function?!!!

change the function name so that it won't interfere with matlab function

function y = _bin2dec(BA) 
 y = 0; BA = num2str(BA); 
 for n = 1:length(BA) 
      y = y + str2num(BA(n))^n-1; 
 end 
end

hopefully that will do! ;)

Good Luck
