How to reverse a Unsigned Char??

[ranjanmg1]

I have a unsigned char.. i need to reverse it.. what the easiest way to
do it?? i dont want to tap each bit save and restore etc etc....

Is it possible to perform some bitwise operation which will give the
reversed char.

e.g., unsigned char x = 0x8A
am expecting an output after reversal x = 0x51

Go to Google Groups and search for "reverse" in comp.lang.c

There's no operator or standard function for this in C, but if you
google for 'reverse bits in a byte' you will find e.g.

http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seande...ReverseObvious

and lots of other results.

static unsigned char CSStab4[256]=

{
0x00,0x80,0x40,0xc0,0x20,0xa0,0x60,0xe0,
0x10,0x90,0x50,0xd0,0x30,0xb0,0x70,0xf0,
....
And so on in much the same manner.

x = 0x8a;
x[CSStab4] == 0x51;

unsigned char bit_rev(unsigned char byte)
{
unsigned hi_mask = ((unsigned char)-1 >1) + 1;
unsigned lo_mask = 1;

do {
if (!(byte & hi_mask) != !(byte & lo_mask)) {
byte ^= hi_mask | lo_mask;
}
hi_mask >>= 1;
lo_mask <<= 1;
} while (hi_mask lo_mask);
return byte;
}
