String to Binary

Question

This is a code golf challenge. Just like the title says, write a program to covert a string of ascii characters into binary.

For example:

"Hello World!" should turn into 1001000 1100101 1101100 1101100 1101111 100000 1010111 1101111 1110010 1101100 1100100 100001.

Note: I am particularly interested in a pyth implementation.

Answer 1

Rust, 40 bytes

|s|for c in s.bytes(){print!("{:b} ",c)}

An anonymous function that takes in an &str, iterates over bytes, and prints them as a binary string.

Answer 2

MUMPS, 77 76 bytes

r s,! f i=1:1:$l(s) s r=$a($e(s,i)) s b=" " f  s b=(r#2)_b,r=r\2 i r=0 w b q 

Example

REPL > r s w ! f i=1:1:$l(s) s r=$a($e(s,i)) s b=" " f  s b=(r#2)_b,r=r\2 i r=0 w b q
Hello World!
1001000 1100101 1101100 1101100 1101111 100000 1010111 1101111 1110010 1101100 1100100 100001

Explanation

• M is great at keeping things to one line.
• We assign user input to variable s and write a newline (!).
• For each character in our string, get the ASCII value with $ascii() and $extract() (intrinsic functions can be abbreviated).
• b is meant to hold the binary value of our character, but we will quickly set it to be a space since we need that to separate the binary representation of each character.
• Now we enter an unconditional loop (two spaces after declaring the for loop). We prefix b with out ascii value (r) modulo 2. You can do string operations on numbers in M.
• We then reduce our ascii value by half, disregarding the remainder (\ is floor division)
• We do this until our ascii value hits 0, at which point we write our binary value

Answer 3

Answer 4

Go, 116 bytes

package main
import(."fmt";"os";."io/ioutil")
func main(){b,_:=ReadAll(os.Stdin);for c:=range b{Printf("%b ",b[c])}}
