Hi, hard problem for you pareshgh

I got int with a signed number, and i want to split it to array of bytes, in little endian.

any ideas?

I hope this will help you ( I wrote a console program :D and tested which will give you the result required,

-------------
// byte representation of a long number
int a = 123456789; //111 01011011 11001101 00010101

byte []b = new byte[4];

b[0] = (byte)(a & 0xFF);
b[1] = (byte)((a & 0xFF00) >>8);
b[2] = (byte)((a & 0xFF0000) >> 16);
b[3] = (byte) ((a & 0xFF000000) >>24);

Console.WriteLine(b[0]);
Console.WriteLine(b[1]);
Console.WriteLine(b[2]);
Console.WriteLine(b[3]);
----------------------

b[0] is and'ing with 255 so get the first byte

b[1] is and'ing only 2'nd byte and rest are zero'ed and then right shifted 8 bytes so as to get byte what's in it.
and so on.

great. thanks :)
how you know all that stuff?

glad that you are happy. thanx
but I am not a guru ;)

cool.

thanx a lot.

bahahhahaha..
You know what this thread sounds like..

This thread sounds like a high school kid looking for someone to do his homeowork..
:D

**** some ppl can be so tricksy(LOTR)....


I guess it beats renting a coder at rend a coder web site..

oh ! really
LOL

Hay you guys! Have you ever heart about the windows socket function like: ntohl()? It takes big indian long and conerts it into the little-indian on Intel processors... :)

You can import them into the C# and use them...

I know, it is just alternative and the paresh's solution works too...

martin, as you are always informative,
this is a good piece of information.

thanx again,
Paresh

I dont think underwater would get full marks for his assignment if he used an api function to answer the question...

hahaha
lol
he isn't underwater
he is underwar. (with me :D )

and yes, u r right. he won't get the full marks for his assignement. if i would be his professor i wdn't gave the internet access and then instructed to try on his own
;) :D

LOL again

take it easy,
Paresh

grrr :)

Hm... If this is the point (to make things more difficult), I would recommed him to write the routine in LISP and use it in C#...

Or even better, to use monolit microcomputer, write it in assembler and comunicatate with the monolit mc using COM port... :D:D:D

Martin

this going crazy.. come on guys i am not gonna college LISP and theoritical programs...
:D ;) :D
