adding binary numbers in java please help!!
Hello all, im a total newbie to java and i need your help urgently, i have two variables
that are integers, that store binary numbers i.e.
int tmpIntOne, tmpIntTwo;
tmpIntOne = 1010;
tmpIntTwo = 1110;
i want to add these numbers together and return a binary result so far when you add them together you get:
2120
however i would like a binary result so that
result = tmpIntOne + tmpIntTwo;
= 11000
Thank you.

These are not binary numbers. These are decimal numbers whose digits consist of ones and zeros. If you want to interpret the characters "010" as a binary number, then do
int tmp1 = Integer.parseInt("1010", 2);
etc.

Adding two ints will give an int. Int's are always binary. If you want to display it as a binary String, as opposed to the usual decimal String, then, as suggested, use toBinaryString.
