这是一个非常简单的例子:

int print_char_to_binary(char ch)
{
    int i;
    for (i=7; i>=0; i--)
        printf("%hd ", ((ch & (1<<i))>>i));
    printf("\n");
    return 0;
}

还有一种想法是将数字转换为十六进制格式，然后将每个十六进制密码解码为四个“位”(1和0)。Sprintf可以为我们做位操作:

const char* binary(int n) {
  static const char binnums[16][5] = { "0000","0001","0010","0011",
    "0100","0101","0110","0111","1000","1001","1010","1011","1100","1101","1110","1111" };
  static const char* hexnums = "0123456789abcdef";
  static char inbuffer[16], outbuffer[4*16];
  const char *i;
  sprintf(inbuffer,"%x",n); // hexadecimal n -> inbuffer
  for(i=inbuffer; *i!=0; ++i) { // for each hexadecimal cipher
    int d = strchr(hexnums,*i) - hexnums; // store its decimal value to d
    char* o = outbuffer+(i-inbuffer)*4; // shift four characters in outbuffer
    sprintf(o,"%s",binnums[d]); // place binary value of d there
  }
  return strchr(outbuffer,'1'); // omit leading zeros
}

puts(binary(42)); // outputs 101010

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

一些运行时支持“%b”，尽管这不是标准。

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"

    (((i) & 0x01ll) ? '1' : '0')

#include <stdio.h>

           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
