| Problem with converting ASCII to int |

Hi guys,
I have a problem with the conversion. On the output of port C I receive only "128".
I am using:
PIC16F690
CCS PIC C 5.82
Windows 10 Pro
| Code: |
unsigned int8 CharToInt (char cInput)
{
unsigned int8 i=0;
const char cCharCompare [17] = {'0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', '#', '*', '\0'};
for (i=0; i<16; i++)
{
if (cInput == cCharCompare[i])
return i;
else
return 128;
}
}

The logic of your routine is incorrect. In your version, if it gets a mismatch
on the very first test, then it bails with error code (128). You don't
want that. You only it want it to exit with an error if it checks all the
values in the array and it got no matches at all.
Fixed version:
| Code: | unsigned int8 CharToInt (char cInput)
{
unsigned int8 i=0;
char cCharCompare [17] = {'0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', '#', '*', '\0'};
for(i=0; i<16; i++)
{
if(cInput == cCharCompare[i])
return i;
}
return(128);
} |

just a comment.
in CCS C, an 'unsigned int8' IS a 'char'.
That can save you a LOT of typing and time.

Though not if you go to the PIC24/30/33, where a char is signed.
This sort of difference is why I prefer to load stdint.h, and then explicitly
use uint8_t, int8_t etc..
Saves so much grief when you move 'up' the chip families!. |

yeah, I'm too old to learn NEW PICs.... 
I had enough problems going from 16C84 to 18F46K22 ! |
