Hello!
Does anybody know what is binary representation of integer datatype
fields written to archlogs on z/OS (OS/390) machines? Is it "Two's
complement", "One's complement", Sign-modulo or whatever?
I would analyze it for myself if someone would provide me with some
binary (hex) representations of some numbers as: 0, 1, -1 and couple
more of your choice.
I will be very thankful for any hints.

SELECT HEX(INTEGER(-1)) FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY 1
Should tell (I assume HEX() exists on DB2 for zOS)
Cheers

While Serge's reply lets you investigate for yourself, the direct answer
for both integer and smallint is big-endian two's complement. This is
different from Windows machines which are little-endinan and also AIX (I
think, it has been several years) which is also little-endian. Don't
even think about decoding floating point representation.

Hi! I checked this query but hex values are different than this visible
in archlog (we did some more research and found suitable data in
archlog). HEX function seems to give results in "two's complement"
system. We found out that (in archlog) binary representation seems to be
something like
value in archlog = value+2^(length-1)
for example: if we have 16bit integer of value -319
than we expect to see 7EC1 in archlog:
-319 + 2^(16-1) = -319 + 2^15 = -319 + 32768 = 32449 = 7EC1 hex
it seems like it's just moving 0 value across axis...
could anyone confirm that?
Cheers

Hi all,
I need to convert an integer into some binary representation. I found the
following code in the online cookbook (adapted to return a list):
binary = lambda n: n>0 and +binary(n>>1) or
This is sure nice, but I'm wondering why something like this doesn't seem to
be in the standard library, for example by formatting with '%b' % number. I
can't think of a any reason for not doing it this way, as working with binary

The stdint.h header definition mentions five integer categories,
1) exact width, eg., int32_t
2) at least as wide as, eg., int_least32_t
3) as fast as possible but at least as wide as, eg., int_fast32_t
4) integer capable of holding a pointer, intptr_t
5) widest integer in the implementation, intmax_t
Is there a valid motivation for having both int_least and int_fast?

Hi All
I have written a program to count the maximum contiguous set bits in an
integer .
Like if my binary representation of integer is :
1100111 : then output should be 3.
111000111110000101010111111 : then output should be 6.
I am including the snippet below.
How can I optimize this code and also is there a one liner to

Can anybody please explain this:
When a value with integer type is converted to another integer type
other than _Bool,
if the new type is unsigned, the value is converted by repeatedly
adding or subtracting one more than the maximum value that can be
represented in the new type until the value is in the range of the new
type.

String formatting can be used to converting an integer to its octal or

But, can string formatting be used to convert an integer to its binary

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.
Here is my compilation command:
