									public static string ASCIIToOctal(string str)
{
	string oct = string.Empty;

	for (int i = 0; i < str.Length; ++i)
	{
		string cOct = DecimalToOctal(str[i]);

		if (cOct.Length < 3)
			cOct = cOct.PadLeft(3, '0');

		oct += cOct;
	}

	return oct;
}

private static string DecimalToOctal(int dec)
{
	if (dec < 1) return "0";

	string octStr = string.Empty;

	while (dec > 0)
	{
		octStr = octStr.Insert(0, (dec % 8).ToString());
		dec /= 8;

Example

									string data = "Programming Algorithms";
string value = ASCIIToOctal(data);
