I am using BinaryWriter in my code, here is my code:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
FileInfo file = new FileInfo(@"F:\testfile");
if (file.Exists) file.Delete();
using (BinaryWriter bw = new BinaryWriter(file.Create()))
{
ushort a = 1024;
ushort b = 2048;
bw.Write(a);
bw.Write(b);
bw.Write(a);
bw.Write(b);
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
But the hex of the output file is :
Isn't that 0x0004 = 4? why?
C programming language is a machine-independent programming language that is mainly used to create many types of applications and operating systems such as Windows, and other complicated programs such as the Oracle database, Git, Python interpreter, and games and is considered a programming foundation in the process of ...
In the real sense it has no meaning or full form. It was developed by Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson at AT&T bell Lab. First, they used to call it as B language then later they made some improvement into it and renamed it as C and its superscript as C++ which was invented by Dr. Stroustroupe.
C is a general-purpose language that most programmers learn before moving on to more complex languages. From Unix and Windows to Tic Tac Toe and Photoshop, several of the most commonly used applications today have been built on C. It is easy to learn because: A simple syntax with only 32 keywords.
C is more difficult to learn than JavaScript, but it's a valuable skill to have because most programming languages are actually implemented in C. This is because C is a “machine-level” language. So learning it will teach you how a computer works and will actually make learning new languages in the future easier.
Although 1024 is 0x0400
. When it comes to storing this in file or memory,
question comes should we use little endian or big endian notation?
In case of BinaryWriter
, it is little endian. Which means LSB goes first - then comes the MSB.
Hence, it is stored as:
LSB | MSB
00 04
You can read more about endianness.
