ASCII-HEX & Binary on RSR232

"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'

U8 val = 65;

printf ("%02bx", val);

will produce two characters of output -- "40" -- which is what I think you mean by "ASCII HEX".

printf ("%c", val);

will produce the output "A", or 65 decimal, which is what I think you mean by "binary".

That's "41" hex, of course. I'm really out of it today. So just trust these guys instead:

Hi,

Thankx andrew fro explanation also drew i caught me wright.

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.
