Print value in it's binary form
PostPosted: Tue Mar 30, 2004 3:16 pm     Reply with quote
Is there a % format for printing an int16 in it's binary form? I searched the forum with no answer and I'm drawing a mental blank.

Hex would print as: 10FF
Binary would print as: 1000000011111111

Thanks.

I know it's a odd to hear but did you look in the manual? If it's not there it should be in the readme file.

I'm not sure there is as I've had to ask the same question myself.

According to the CCsC.hlp file, there is no explicit binary printf type.

You could write a function to translate bits to chars and to printf one character (ascii 1 or ascii 0) per 16 times. or you could make a string of 16 chars of 1/0 and printf the string...but that would require 16+ bytes of RAM.

Of course, if there is a better way, i'd be happy to hear about it, too! Smile

Definitely looked both places and definitely didn't find it. My memory is not as good as it used to be so I was hoping I had just forgotten the trick. I felt the forum was the next option.

There is code on the forum. This thread has a routine
to convert an 8-bit value to ASCII binary representation.
You could modify it to work with a 16-bit input value.

Thanks PCM. Since it looks like it will require extra code, I'm going to rethink my application to use an existing format.
