    looking for a few pascal algorithims can anyone help??
    1.an algorithim to convert a given decimal number to binary then hex notation.
    2.an algorythim to calculate the number of bits in any given file size(byte,MB,GB,TB,EB).
    3.an algorithim to calculate the time in seconds it will take to send a file across each of the main comms links(modem,ISDN BRI and E1).
    4.an algorithim to emulate the router operation of calculating the network address by performing the logical AND calculation upon any given IP address and subnet mask.
    If anyone can help on these it d be great even a few pointers would help cheers. JK.

    Doing homework there, Johnny boy?

    An algorithm is a set of steps for getting something done, its not written in any particular language (unless you define logic as a language). What you seem to be looking for is Pascal code...

    not quite so much code just the order of how the code would be presented if written in pascal but written in plain english thats what im looking for.
    its a big ask but maybe someone knows the best way of doing it

    Google is probable you’re most useful tool here, try searching from algorithms there.
    A first Step (Found by Google)

    Decimal to Binary algorithm

    start
    1.let num be an array of integer
    2.input no.
    3.let rem=0,ctr=0
    4.while(rem!=1)
    begin
    q=no/2
    rem=no mod 2
    num[ctr]=rem
    ctr++
    no=q
    end
    5.while(ctr>=0)
    begin
    print num[ctr]
    ctr=ctr-1
    end
    end
