<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have an input string &quot;BEA4F1&quot; into which is encoded the following printer colour settings.<br />
<br />
10 bits are colour intensity (0 to 1023)<br />
10 bits are colour range ( 0 to 1023)<br />
4 bits are for colour (0 to 15)<br />
<br />
So an example message would be &nbsp;&quot;BEA4F1&quot;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;intensity = 762 = 1011111010<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;range &nbsp; &nbsp; = 591 = 1001001111<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;colour &nbsp; &nbsp;= 1 &nbsp; = 0001<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;So binary (24 bits = 1011 1110 1010 0100 1111 0001 = &quot;BEA4F1&quot;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;how do I get intensity, range and colour values back from string &quot;BEA4F1&quot;?<br />

I have an input string "BEA4F1" into which is encoded the following printer colour settings.

10 bits are colour intensity (0 to 1023)
10 bits are colour range ( 0 to 1023)
4 bits are for colour (0 to 15)

So an example message would be  "BEA4F1"
         
         intensity = 762 = 1011111010
         range     = 591 = 1001001111
         colour    = 1   = 0001
         
         So binary (24 bits = 1011 1110 1010 0100 1111 0001 = "BEA4F1"
         
         how do I get intensity, range and colour values back from string "BEA4F1"?
         
         Thanks 
         

Calculating values from string

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
