Single to Byte HELP!
OK,
My prob is this:
I get a single as in-parameter in (32 Bits)
I need to convert this to four seperate bytes (8*4 bits)
in-param Single = [1010101010101010101010101
the trick is that this has no meaning at all, i need to put the first 8 bits in to a byte and the next 8 into another, like this:
Byte_1 = [10101010]
Byte_2 = [10101010]
Byte_3 = [10101010]
Byte_4 = [10101010]
Now I can interpret the byte as four different chars
need this fast
Thankyou

THANKYOU PaulHews AND deighton!!
both gave me EXCELENT answers and fast ones! I would like to split the points between u two but since I have to choose the vote will fall on Paul's as his answer has less code. Thanx!
