convert hex number to binary number array

[horanyee]

Hi,

I need to convert hex number into binary number array.

Can someone show me how?

For example,

num1 = 0xFA

I need to put into binary array,

         index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

value (LSB)0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1(MSB)

Thank you.

Hi horanyee,

   Use num to boolean array function which nis present in boolean pallette....

Additional info: if you actually want zeros and ones you can add a Boolean to 0,1 function.

There's a couple of issues with this solution:

• It gives you a string array, and the OP asked for a binary number array, which I take to mean an array of zeros and ones.
• It does not give you the full 8 bits, including the preceding zeros. This can be remedied by changing the format string to %08b.
• A more compact way (albeit at the expense of a small coercion) to get your string array result is the following:

Guru,

You are generating a string array instead of a number array like the op asked for and the order of your array is reversed.

What srikrishnaNF and smercurio_fc are descibing is this simple code.
