Convert decimal to octal and vice versa in JavaScript

In such cases, we can convert a decimal value to the octal string by using the number.toString(8) and octal string to the decimal by using oct_string.parseInt(8).

In both cases, 8 is the base to the number system that says that target or source value format is octal.

Example to convert decimal to octal and vice versa

<html>
<head>
<title>JavaScipt Example</title>
</head>

<body>
	<script>		
		var a = 10;
		var b = 12345;
		
		document.write("a = " + a.toString(8) + "<br>");
		document.write("b = " + b.toString(8) + "<br>");
		
		//conver octal string to the int again
		var oct = "012"; //octal of 10
		var dec = parseInt(oct,8);
		document.write("dec = " + dec + "<br>");
	</script>
</body>
</html>

Output

a = 12
b = 30071
dec = 10
