binary numbers

[FrozenLight]

How do you specify that a number is in binary notation?
Ex: variable a= 10010101

How do you convert a number in ascii format to an int or long type?

Thanks

char* endPtr;
int val = strtol(buffer,endPtr,2);

To convert a string to integer....

char *str;
int val;
.
.
.
val = atoi(str);
