 At this moment I can binary -> decimal -> octal. There probably is a better way to do this:
 Convert every 3 binary digits (start from bit 0) to 1 octal digit, with binary table from 0 to 7
 Ex: 00001100010001 = 00 001 100 010 001 = 1 4 2 1 = 1421
-2. Input a dinamic array of chars
++ 2. Input a dinamic array of chars
 3. Convertion: 
-    Enum of binary valies from 0 to 7
     Iterate over an array, assign each pair of three from the end of the array octal value
     Output the value
 4. Invalid input
