Convert octal to decima
Use function OctToDec to convert number in octal format to decimat format. It is not very difficult, because 217 in octal is 2*8*8+1*8+7 in decimal format.
function OctToDec(OctStr: string): string; var DecNum: Real; i: Integer; Error: Boolean; begin DecNum:=0; Error:=False; for i:=Length(OctStr) downto 1 do begin if not (OctStr[i] in ['0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7']) then begin Error:=True; ShowMessage('This is not octal number'); Break; end; DecNum:=DecNum+StrToInt(OctStr[i])*Power(8, Length(OctStr)-i); end; if not Error then Result:=FloatToStr(DecNum) else Result:=''; end;
