Read-Only Author Jon Ward Posted 24-Aug-2004 10:26 Toolset None	RE: ASCII-HEX & Binary on RSR232 Jon Ward The output is in ASCII characters. I've never heard of ASCII-HEX. What is it? Jon

Read-Only Author Andrew Neil Posted 24-Aug-2004 10:50 Toolset None	RE: ASCII-HEX & Binary on RSR232 Andrew Neil "The output is in ASCII characters." To be precise (as the original post seems very vague), the output is a string of bytes where the numerical value of each byte is the ASCII code for a character. Here are some examples of numerical byte values (shown in binary, octal, decimal, and hex) and the corresponding characters from the ASCII code: Binary Octal Decimal Hex ASCII -------- ----- ------- --- ----- 00110000 060 48 30 '0' 00110001 061 49 31 '1' 01000001 101 65 41 'A' 01100001 141 97 61 'a'

Actually if i use uchar val=0x0A; printf ("%02bx", val); it should output "0A" and not a linefeed. since with printf ("%c", val); i get a linefeed. I got the point thankx. rutu
