Does anyone know how to add 2 binary numbers, entered as binary, in Java?
For example, 1010 + 10 = 1100.
Adding binary numbers
@twiddles No more homework tagging! :) –
Bantustan
This may blow your mind. You can write C code in java. C is lower-level and you can do binary arithmetic with it. It's late, so I'm not writing out a sample, but you can look it up. –

This is more likely to be a leetcode question I guess. I came accross this question here: leetcode.com/problems/add-binary –
Cornew
Use Integer.parseInt(String, int radix).
public static String addBinary(){
// The two input Strings, containing the binary representation of the two values:
String input0 = "1010";
String input1 = "10";
// Use as radix 2 because it's binary
int number0 = Integer.parseInt(input0, 2);
int number1 = Integer.parseInt(input1, 2);
int sum = number0 + number1;
return Integer.toBinaryString(sum); //returns the answer as a binary value;
}
wow. it worked! thanks bro. but i was wondering if you could explain why? –
Trygve
Integer is a class, which contains a method to parse a string which represents an integer to its real integer value (int). You can take a look at the link I provided you. –
Houri Martin - it does not show the answer in binary. How do we do that? –
Guyette
@Abhishekkumar just use
Integer.toBinaryString(sum); –
Antechamber This can throw java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "10100000100100110110010000010101111011011001101110111111111101000000101111001110001111100001101" "110101001011101110001111100110001010100001101011101010000011011011001011101111001100000011011110011" –

@K which makes sense since the max int value is
2,147,483,647 and the (first) binary value translates to 24,847,893,154,024,981,730,169,397,005 –
Hugely To dive into fundamentals:
public static String binaryAddition(String s1, String s2) {
if (s1 == null || s2 == null) return "";
int first = s1.length() - 1;
int second = s2.length() - 1;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
int carry = 0;
while (first >= 0 || second >= 0) {
int sum = carry;
if (first >= 0) {
sum += s1.charAt(first) - '0';
first--;
}
if (second >= 0) {
sum += s2.charAt(second) - '0';
second--;
}
carry = sum >> 1;
sum = sum & 1;
sb.append(sum == 0 ? '0' : '1');
}
if (carry > 0)
sb.append('1');
sb.reverse();
return String.valueOf(sb);
}
@Serhanbaker Could you please explain, sum += s1.charAt(first) - '0'; bit. Thanks –
Locarno
this should be accepted answer, since the first answer doesn't work with large values –
Citrange
@Locarno check this out: Java: Subtract '0' from char to get an int... why does this work?. –
Gerhan
Martijn is absolutely correct, to piggyback and complete the answer
Integer.toBinaryString(sum);
would give your output in binary as per the OP question.
You can just put 0b in front of the binary number to specify that it is binary.
For this example, you can simply do:
Integer.toString(0b1010 + 0b10, 2);
This will add the two in binary, and Integer.toString() with 2 as the second parameter converts it back to binary.
Binary literals are allowed in java 7 too, see docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-3.html#jls-3.10.1 –
Arrangement
This should be the correct answer; no reason to convert to strings or roll your own solution. –
Steinke
The original solution by Martijn will not work for large binary numbers. The below code can be used to overcome that.
public String addBinary(String s1, String s2) {
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
int i = s1.length() - 1, j = s2.length() -1, carry = 0;
while (i >= 0 || j >= 0) {
int sum = carry;
if (j >= 0) sum += s2.charAt(j--) - '0';
if (i >= 0) sum += s1.charAt(i--) - '0';
sb.append(sum % 2);
carry = sum / 2;
}
if (carry != 0) sb.append(carry);
return sb.reverse().toString();
}
it works from me large binary numbers. –

}
Another interesting but long approach is to convert each of the two numbers to decimal, adding the decimal numbers and converting the answer obtained back to binary!
Java solution
static String addBinary(String a, String b) {
int lenA = a.length();
int lenB = b.length();
int i = 0;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
int rem = Math.abs(lenA-lenB);
while(rem >0){
sb.append('0');
rem--;
}
if(lenA > lenB){
sb.append(b);
b = sb.toString();
}else{
sb.append(a);
a = sb.toString();
}
sb = new StringBuilder();
char carry = '0';
i = a.length();
while(i > 0){
if(a.charAt(i-1) == b.charAt(i-1)){
sb.append(carry);
if(a.charAt(i-1) == '1'){
carry = '1';
}else{
carry = '0';
}
}else{
if(carry == '1'){
sb.append('0');
carry = '1';
}else{
carry = '0';
sb.append('1');
}
}
i--;
}
if(carry == '1'){
sb.append(carry);
}
sb.reverse();
return sb.toString();
}
public String addBinary(String a, String b) {
int carry = 0;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for(int i = a.length() - 1, j = b.length() - 1;i >= 0 || j >= 0;i--,j--){
int sum = carry + (i >= 0 ? a.charAt(i) - '0':0) + (j >= 0 ? b.charAt(j) - '0' : 0);
sb.append(sum%2);
carry =sum / 2;
}
if(carry > 0) sb.append(carry);
sb.reverse();
return sb.toString();
}
Explanation please? –

I've actually managed to find a solution to this question without using the stringbuilder() function. Check this out:
public void BinaryAddition(String s1,String s2)
{
int l1=s1.length();int c1=l1;
int l2=s2.length();int c2=l2;
int max=(int)Math.max(l1,l2);
int arr1[]=new int[max];
int arr2[]=new int[max];
int sum[]=new int[max+1];
for(int i=(arr1.length-1);i>=(max-l1);i--)
{
arr1[i]=(int)(s1.charAt(c1-1)-48);
c1--;
}
for(int i=(arr2.length-1);i>=(max-l2);i--)
{
arr2[i]=(int)(s2.charAt(c2-1)-48);
c2--;
}
for(int i=(sum.length-1);i>=1;i--)
{
sum[i]+=arr1[i-1]+arr2[i-1];
if(sum[i]==2)
{
sum[i]=0;
sum[i-1]=1;
}
else if(sum[i]==3)
{
sum[i]=1;
sum[i-1]=1;
}
}
int c=0;
for(int i=0;i<sum.length;i++)
{
System.out.print(sum[i]);
}
}
The idea is same as discussed in few of the answers, but this one is a much shorter and easier to understand solution (steps are commented).
// Handles numbers which are way bigger.
public String addBinary(String a, String b) {
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
int i = a.length() - 1;
int j = b.length() -1;
int carry = 0;
while (i >= 0 || j >= 0) {
int sum = carry;
if (j >= 0) { sum += b.charAt(j--) - '0' };
if (i >= 0) { sum += a.charAt(i--) - '0' };
// Added number can be only 0 or 1
sb.append(sum % 2);
// Get the carry.
carry = sum / 2;
}
if (carry != 0) { sb.append(carry); }
// First reverse and then return.
return sb.reverse().toString();
}

One of the simple ways is as:
- convert the two strings to char[] array and set carry=0.
- set the smallest array length in for loop
- start for loop from the last index and decrement it
- check 4 conditions(0+0=0, 0+1=1, 1+0=1, 1+1=10(carry=1)) for binary addition for each element in both the arrays and reset the carry accordingly.
- append the addition in stringbuffer
- append rest of the elements from max size array to stringbuffer but check consider carry while appending
- print stringbuffer in reverse order for the answer.
//The java code is as
static String binaryAdd(String a, String b){
int len = 0;
int size = 0;
char[] c1 = a.toCharArray();
char[] c2 = b.toCharArray();
char[] max;

you can write your own One.
long a =100011111111L;
long b =1000001111L;
int carry = 0 ;
long result = 0;
long multiplicity = 1;
while(a!=0 || b!=0 || carry ==1){
if(a%10==1){
if(b%10==1){
result+= (carry*multiplicity);
carry = 1;
}else if(carry == 1){
carry = 1;
}else{
result += multiplicity;
}
}else if (b%10 == 1){
if(carry == 1){
carry = 1;
}else {
result += multiplicity;
}
}else {
result += (carry*multiplicity);
carry = 0;

- For future leetcoders looking to see if any builtin methods exist to overcome the hassle of converting it, you're at the right place.
- And we'll have to import & instantiate before using it, since I think leetcode doesn't allow the usage of static classes directly.
// Use BigInteger to convert the string to binary.
// BigInteger is used when long with range [-2^63, 2^63 - 1]

BigInteger(String s, int radix);

Constraints : It can't add binary numbers which are greater than 1023, cause of the max size of int is 2^31.
To handle large numbers use BigInteger -
public String addBinary(String a, String b) {
java.math.BigInteger fNum = new java.math.BigInteger(a, 2);
java.math.BigInteger sNum = new java.math.BigInteger(b, 2);
return fNum.add(sNum).toString(2);
}
here's a python version that
def binAdd(s1, s2):
if not s1 or not s2:
return ''
maxlen = max(len(s1), len(s2))
s1 = s1.zfill(maxlen)
s2 = s2.zfill(maxlen)
result = ''
carry = 0
i = maxlen - 1
while(i >= 0):
