What is the difference between 100 and 0100 in binary?

[BeginnerP]

I convert 4=100 in binary but converter converts 4=0100. In shifting, 4>>2=1. So, coverter is right, 4=0100. Because 100>>2=000 but 0100>>2=0001. Where am I doing wrong? Why 4 don't equal to 100?

100>>2=000

If you shift the bit pattern 100 two steps to the right you end up with 001.

Thanks a lot!

Just to be explicit, there is no difference between 100 and 0100 in binary.

Just like there's no difference between 100 and 0100 in decimal.
