Octal to Decimal converter

To convert an octal number to decimal, you can follow these steps:

1. Assign decimal values to each octal digit (0-7).

   • 0: 0
   • 1: 1
   • 2: 2
   • 3: 3
   • 4: 4
   • 5: 5
   • 6: 6
   • 7: 7

2. Multiply each octal digit by the corresponding power of 8 based on its position (starting from the rightmost digit).

3. Sum up the results from step 2 to obtain the decimal equivalent.

Here's an example:

Let's say you want to convert the octal number "345" to decimal.

1. Assign decimal values to each octal digit: 3: 3 4: 4 5: 5

2. Multiply each octal digit by the corresponding power of 8: 3 * 8^2 = 3 * 64 = 192 4 * 8^1 = 4 * 8 = 32 5 * 8^0 = 5 * 1 = 5

3. Sum up the results: 192 + 32 + 5 = 229

So, the octal number "345" is equivalent to the decimal number 229.
