Convert 2 char into 1 int
- by Leo
I have 2 chars: HIGH and LOW and I'd like to convert them to an int corresponding to HIGH + the 2 left bits from LOW.
I tried somethine like :
char *HIGH;
char *LOW;
HIGH = 152;
LOW = 12;
int result;
result += (LOW + 6);
result += (LOW + 7)*2;
result += HIGH*4;
result += (HIGH + 1)*8;
result += (HIGH + 2)*16;
result += (HIGH + 3)*32;
result += (HIGH + 4)*64;
result += (HIGH + 5)*128;
result += (HIGH + 6)*256;
result += (HIGH + 7)*512;
return result;
But it doesn't work and I don't understand why.
