你可以使用一个小表格来提高速度。类似的技术在嵌入式世界中也很有用，例如，反转一个字节:

const char *bit_rep[16] = {
    [ 0] = "0000", [ 1] = "0001", [ 2] = "0010", [ 3] = "0011",
    [ 4] = "0100", [ 5] = "0101", [ 6] = "0110", [ 7] = "0111",
    [ 8] = "1000", [ 9] = "1001", [10] = "1010", [11] = "1011",
    [12] = "1100", [13] = "1101", [14] = "1110", [15] = "1111",
};

void print_byte(uint8_t byte)
{
    printf("%s%s", bit_rep[byte >> 4], bit_rep[byte & 0x0F]);
}

1我主要指的是嵌入式应用程序，其中优化器不是那么激进，速度差异是可见的。

但对我来说很管用:

#define BYTE_TO_BINARY_PATTERN "%c%c%c%c%c%c%c%c"
#define BYTE_TO_BINARY(byte)  \
  (byte & 0x80 ? '1' : '0'), \
  (byte & 0x40 ? '1' : '0'), \
  (byte & 0x20 ? '1' : '0'), \
  (byte & 0x10 ? '1' : '0'), \
  (byte & 0x08 ? '1' : '0'), \
  (byte & 0x04 ? '1' : '0'), \
  (byte & 0x02 ? '1' : '0'), \
  (byte & 0x01 ? '1' : '0') 

printf("Leading text "BYTE_TO_BINARY_PATTERN, BYTE_TO_BINARY(byte));

对于多字节类型

printf("m: "BYTE_TO_BINARY_PATTERN" "BYTE_TO_BINARY_PATTERN"\n",
  BYTE_TO_BINARY(m>>8), BYTE_TO_BINARY(m));

不幸的是，你需要所有额外的引号。这种方法存在宏的效率风险(不要将函数作为参数传递给BYTE_TO_BINARY)，但避免了这里的其他一些建议中的内存问题和多次调用strcat。

A small utility function in C to do this while solving a bit manipulation problem. This goes over the string checking each set bit using a mask (1< void printStringAsBinary(char * input) { char * temp = input; int i = 7, j =0;; int inputLen = strlen(input); /* Go over the string, check first bit..bit by bit and print 1 or 0 **/ for (j = 0; j < inputLen; j++) { printf("\n"); while (i>=0) { if (*temp & (1 << i)) { printf("1"); } else { printf("0"); } i--; } temp = temp+1; i = 7; printf("\n"); } }

使用标准库将任何整型转换为二进制字符串表示的语句泛型:

#include <bitset>
MyIntegralType  num = 10;
print("%s\n",
    std::bitset<sizeof(num) * 8>(num).to_string().insert(0, "0b").c_str()
); // prints "0b1010\n"

或者只是： std：：cout << std：：bitset<sizeof（num） * 8>（num）;

根据@ideasman42在他的回答中的建议，这是一个提供int8、16,32和64版本的宏，重用int8宏以避免重复。

/* --- PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY macro's --- */
#define PRINTF_BINARY_SEPARATOR
#define PRINTF_BINARY_PATTERN_INT8 "%c%c%c%c%c%c%c%c"
#define PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY_INT8(i)    \
    (((i) & 0x80ll) ? '1' : '0'), \
    (((i) & 0x40ll) ? '1' : '0'), \
    (((i) & 0x20ll) ? '1' : '0'), \
    (((i) & 0x10ll) ? '1' : '0'), \
    (((i) & 0x08ll) ? '1' : '0'), \
    (((i) & 0x04ll) ? '1' : '0'), \
    (((i) & 0x02ll) ? '1' : '0'), \
    (((i) & 0x01ll) ? '1' : '0')

    PRINTF_BINARY_PATTERN_INT16              PRINTF_BINARY_SEPARATOR              PRINTF_BINARY_PATTERN_INT16
#define PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY_INT32(i) \
    PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY_INT16((i) >> 16), PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY_INT16(i)
#define PRINTF_BINARY_PATTERN_INT64    \
    PRINTF_BINARY_PATTERN_INT32              PRINTF_BINARY_SEPARATOR              PRINTF_BINARY_PATTERN_INT32

    PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY_INT32((i) >> 32), PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY_INT32(i)
/* --- end macros --- */

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
    long long int flag = 1648646756487983144ll;
    printf("My Flag "
           PRINTF_BINARY_PATTERN_INT64 "\n",
           PRINTF_BYTE_TO_BINARY_INT64(flag));
    return 0;
}

这个输出:

My Flag 0001011011100001001010110111110101111000100100001111000000101000

为了可读性，您可以更改:#define PRINTF_BINARY_SEPARATOR为#define PRINTF_BINARY_SEPARATOR "，"或#define PRINTF_BINARY_SEPARATOR " "

这将输出:

My Flag 00010110,11100001,00101011,01111101,01111000,10010000,11110000,00101000

or

My Flag 00010110 11100001 00101011 01111101 01111000 10010000 11110000 00101000

我的解决方案返回一个int，然后可以在printf中使用。它还可以以大端序或小端序返回位。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

int binary(uint8_t i,int bigEndian)
{
    int j=0,m = bigEndian ? 1 : 10000000;
    while (i)
    {
        j+=m*(i%2);
        if (bigEndian) m*=10; else m/=10;
        i >>= 1;
    }
    return j;
}

int main()
{
    char buf[]="ABCDEF";
    printf("\nbig endian = ");
    for (int i=0; i<5; i++) printf("%08d ",binary(buf[i],1));
    printf("\nwee endian = ");
    for (int i=0; i<5; i++) printf("%08d ",binary(buf[i],0));
    getchar();
    return 0;
}

输出

big endian = 01000001 01000010 01000011 01000100 01000101 01000110
wee endian = 10000010 01000010 11000010 00100010 10100010 01100010
