Converts an octal number to its decimal equivalent.

Octal #

Octal is a Dart package designed for developers who need to handle octal to decimal conversions and manage Linux file permissions. It provides a simple and effective way to translate octal numbers into their decimal and symbolic equivalents, making it easier to work with file permissions in Linux environments.

Getting started #

To use this package, simply add it to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  octal: ^1.0.0

Then, import it into your Dart code:

import 'package:octal/octal.dart';

main() {
  int decimalValue = octal(123); // 83 in decimal
  print(decimalValue);
}

For a more complete example, see the example code provided in the repository.

Comparison with Other Languages #

Java #

Java uses the 0123 syntax for octal numbers, which can be confusing and error-prone:

int octalValue = 0123; // Java syntax for octal, leading zero indicates octal
System.out.println(octalValue); // Prints 83 (decimal)

Rust #

Rust, on the other hand, uses a more explicit and clear 0o123 syntax for octal numbers:

let octal_value = 0o123; // Rust syntax for octal
println!("{}", octal_value); // Prints 83 (decimal)

For a more complete example, see the example code.
