messageFromBinaryCode

You are taking part in an Escape Room challenge designed specifically for programmers. In your efforts to find a clue, you’ve found a binary code written on the wall behind a vase, and realized that it must be an encrypted message. After some thought, your first guess is that each consecutive 8 bits of the code stand for the character with the corresponding extended ASCII code.

Assuming that your hunch is correct, decode the message.

Example

  • For code = "010010000110010101101100011011000110111100100001", the output should be messageFromBinaryCode(code) = "Hello!".

    The first 8 characters of the code are 01001000, which is 72 in the binary numeral system. 72 stands for H in the ASCII-table, so the first letter is H.

    Other letters can be obtained in the same manner.

Input/Output

  • [execution time limit] 0.5 seconds (cpp)

  • [input] string code

    A string, the encrypted message consisting of characters '0' and '1'.

    Guaranteed constraints:
    0 < code.length < 800.

  • [output] string

    • The decrypted message.
