Converting Binary Strings to English Sentences using JavaScript

Introduction:

In this article, we'll explore a JavaScript solution that takes a binary string with each binary number separated by a space and transforms it into its corresponding sentence.

We'll

1. discuss the problem,
2. outline an approach,
3. present a step-by-step solution, and provide example code.

Understanding the Problem:

The task at hand is to convert a binary string, where each binary number is separated by a space, into its corresponding English sentence. For example, the binary string "01000001 01110010 01100101" should be transformed into the sentence "Are".

My approach for solving this problem:

1- Define the binaryAgent function, which takes the binary string as an argument.

2- Split the binary string into an array of binary numbers using the split method with a space as the separator. This gives us an array of binary numbers.

3- Use map method and inside the map function, convert each binary number to its corresponding character using String.fromCharCode() and parseInt(binary, 2). The parseInt function converts the binary string to its decimal representation.

4- Finally, join the resulting array of characters using the joinmethod to form the sentence.

My solution:

function binaryAgent(str) {
  const binaryArray = str.split(" ");

  const sentence = binaryArray
    .map((binary) => String.fromCharCode(parseInt(binary, 2)))
    .join("");

  return sentence;
}

const binaryString = "01000001 01110010 01100101 01101110 
01110100 00100000 01100010 01101111 01101110 01100110 
01101001 01110010 01100101 01110011 00100000 01100110 
01110101 01101110 00100001 00111111";
const result = binaryAgent(binaryString);

console.log(result); // Output: "Are you bonfires fun!?"
