Hello. I have a problem with getting short value from 2 byte array.
I have this code. There are 2 short values in bytes.
byte[] cast = { 18, 152, 00, 80 };
Int32 port = BitConverter.To Int16(cast, 0); // -26606 - wrong!
Int32 port2 = BitConverter.To Int16(cast, 2); // 20480 - wrong!
//port and port2 get not correct values
//and I found solution in google
short result1 = (short)(((short )cast[1]) | (short)(cast[0] * 256)); //4760 -
correct!
short result2 = (short)(((short )cast[3]) | (short)(cast[2] * 256)); //80 -
correct!
why it happends? How make BitConverter work correct? 5 4575

Don't lie to it about the data you're passing it. If you want it to
convert data that you have that starts in big-endian format, you need to
convert that data to little-endian before you pass it to BitConverter
How to make this convert to little-endian?

You could just do cast[0] * 256 + cast[1]. You will need to work out how to
handle values of 128 or above for the first byte.
Note that this will only work if the binary data is a single value
(however many bytes that is for the type in question); if it is a true
stream of successive values you could be in a pickle.
Minor aside; personally I would have called reader.ReadByte s() to fill
the buffer in either case, and then (if littleEndian) reversed the
buffer locally. Horses for courses...

That should probably be a bitwise "or" (|), not a logical "or" (||).
And again, it only helps with a few cases (single, simple values like
short). IMO, the better solution is to leave the byte-stream alone,
and use EndianBitConver ter. This will work for multiple sequenced
values, and all data types.

My JavaScript Form Validation doesn't work at all in Netscape, but it
works fine in IE.
I made some of the suggested changes which enabled it to work in IE.
I couldn't make all the changes because then it didn't work in IE.
How can I enable this javascipt form validation to work in Netscape?
When I use netscape, none of the alert boxes appear. It submits the
form without validating anything.

If I run the following code:

I get the string "74-65-73-74" back. My question is, what is the
easiest way to convert the string back to "test"?
Can it be done without breaking the string and using a loop, etc.? I
have tried many methods, but can't find a way without using a loop. It

Hi,
I created a byte array
--byte aByteArray = new byte;
and set aByteArray and aByteArray to '1'.
Because I want to create a ulong (UInt64) with these values I do:
UInt64 bb;
bb = BitConverter.ToUInt64(aByteArray,0);
Console.WriteLine(bb);

Hi,
I have a byte that i want to convert into a string. I use the

Now, how do I convert that string back into a byte?
Thanks in advance,

byte array = {0x00,0x04};
short ashort = BitConverter.ToInt16(array,0);
Console.WriteLine(ashort.ToString());
Why am I wrong to think that this should return a 4 instead of 1024?
Also, is there a way to get a short value of 4 from those 2 bytes
without switching their possition in the byte array?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
