converting octal numbers to standard output

[87vette]

I have a program that i have to do for school. i have to convert octal, hex, and binary to its standard output
and print out an how many overflows are read from the file
I have to read from: example 0b0101 -012 0x05A -123
the output should be something like this

Binary 5
octal -10
Decimal -123
Hexadecimal 90

any ideas how to right functions so that it can convert
the numbers?


the only hint the instructor gave us it to use a function
something like this: int getnum(int *error, int *radix, int *characters_read)

any help would greatly appreciated Nail the code

Not sure exactly what you're trying to do here, but just in case you didn't know, in the function that your professor pointed out the radix is in essence the base. If you're reading in those numbers just figure out what base they're in and read them accordingly. To output if you're using std::cout there are flags you can use to specify what base you are outputing in. Hope this helps. Your example is a little blurry. Good luck. MYenigmaSELF:-9
