Question

How can I convert BitArray to a single int?

Answer 1

private int getIntFromBitArray(BitArray bitArray)
{

    if (bitArray.Length > 32)
        throw new ArgumentException("Argument length shall be at most 32 bits.");

    int[] array = new int[1];
    bitArray.CopyTo(array, 0);
    return array[0];

}

Answer 2

private int getIntFromBitArray(BitArray bitArray)
{
    int value = 0;

    for (int i = 0; i < bitArray.Count; i++)
    {
        if (bitArray[i])
            value += Convert.ToInt16(Math.Pow(2, i));
    }

    return value;
}
