Results for “binary”
Small, practical examples. Search by task or narrow things down below.
Compare binary buffers including zero bytes
C: memcmp checks an explicit byte length rather than stopping at a string terminator.
C✓ Tested
Copy a file in bounded binary chunks
C: Check read, write, and close errors while copying without loading the entire file.
C✓ Tested
Encode and decode binary data as Base64
Python: Use Base64 when a text format must carry bytes; it is encoding, not encryption.
Python✓ Tested
Measure a small seekable binary file
C: Seek to the end and inspect ftell, checking both operations for errors.
C✓ Tested
Read a big-endian binary integer
C#: Use BinaryPrimitives when the protocol byte order differs from or must not depend on the host.
C#✓ Tested
Replace bytes at a known position in a binary file
C: Open in update mode and seek before writing a fixed-size replacement.
C✓ Tested
Write and read binary bytes
Java: Use the byte-oriented Files methods when text encoding should not be involved.
Java✓ Tested
Write and read binary bytes
Round-trip a byte buffer through a C binary file.
C✓ Tested
Write and read typed binary fields
Java: Data streams use a matching write/read order and fixed encodings for Java primitive values.
Java✓ Tested
Assemble a big-endian 16-bit value
Arduino / C: Cast to an unsigned 16-bit type before shifting the high byte.
Arduino / C✓ Tested
Assign a bit from a Boolean state
Arduino / C: bitWrite accepts a bit position and a zero or nonzero value.
Arduino / C✓ Tested
Calculate a CRC-8 over a byte sequence
Arduino / C: This implementation uses polynomial 0x07, initial zero, and no reflection.
