Number of bits in a character

Hi all

Is there a sql function to get the number of bits in a character?
8-bit characters say, it should return to 8 and 16-bit characters, it must go back to 16.

Maybe that's a stupid question but I need for one of my requirements.

Thank you

Hello

You can get the length (in bytes ) of a string using s

LENGTHB (s)

s may be a single character.

To get the bit length, multiply by the number of bits per byte or 8:

8 * LENGTHB (s)

  • (number of bits) in a number

    I am decimal to binary conversion and I try to get the number of bits in the binary number called "binary resulting Numer' exit in VI... How can I get?

    #Bits control SETS the number minimum of characters in the string.  The string contains a lot more characters than required to represent the number.

    It sounds as if you are trying to determine the length of the minimum string that displays a binary representation of your number.

    If you use a %b format string and check the length of the output string will display the number of characters in the binary string.  You can also format the control or the indicator to display in binary, assured representation is one of the integer data types.

    With your decimal entry defined for I32, be careful with negative numbers. They all have the same length = 32.

  • How to check the version of windows and the number of bits?

    Dear Sir

    As I could not download and watch a video show, I was told to check the version of windows and the number of bits. I remembered the upgrade to version 10 of Windows when you are prompted before. However, when I clicked on 'This PC' to check the C:\ drive, it shows Windows8_OS (C :).  It is quite misleading.  Can I know how to check & confirm the correct version of Windows and where to find the number of bits as well?

    Thank you.

    Looks like you're on windows 10, but after the upgrade is not changed the label of the hard drive.

    Type winver in the run box-press windows key + R box simultaneously.

    If the Windows 10 Build 10XXX State, you're on windows 10.

    Simply right click C: / and select Rename and rename the drive in Windows10OS or what you want.

  • SMU-8431/8 RS-422 serial card sends the wrong number of bits

    I use a card series SMU-8431/8 RS-422 configuration for talking to a camera that has the speed of transmission parameters following 38400, 7 data bits, 1 stop bit, odd parity. I confirmed that the device certainly has these settings I can communicate with him using a separate Linux PC.

    When I try to use the serial port of EITHER the device does not react. Then, I connected the serial port OR on my Linux PC to see which sent the port NO. It is garbage. Nonprinting characters, control commands and the other characters are converted (for example I send the ascii character '1' and get the ascii character 'a').

    I made sure to add the terminating resistor 120 ohm NI RX + RX-lines and as mentioned in other posts on these forums, but it is only for the reception and did not solve the problem.

    I put a scope on the TX + and TX-lines from the map OR track seems reasonable that sent bits is correctly 38400 and voltage levels are correct moving between +/-3V. What I've noticed, is that the map series, NEITHER seems to be send to the 11 data bits. I expect 10-bit (1 start bit, 7 data, 1 parity, and 1 stop). I changed to 8 and then 6 bits of data and the total number sent passes to 12, then 10, respectively.

    I get the same behavior if I use Labview screws, Panel VISA for the port of MAX, or to remove the software NOR entirely and use Hyperterminal. This would seem to indicate that the problem is something in the settings of low level on the card itself.

    I tried a second SMU-8431/8 card and the same results, this isn't a fault map (may be two defective cards, I guess!).

    Any ideas?

    Many thanks in advance,

    Ian

    Discovered it was: used a scope to view the track both the Linux PC and the serial port OR to compare. The trace OR was significantly longer than the Linux. When I measured the width of the track OR whole, it worked to have a frequency of about 33 000, or much less that the 38400 assigned him. I was getting the wrong characters every bit of data from the port because NEITHER was out of sync with the Linux PC.

    I increased the port baud rate NOR and found that setting in 45 000 made it align correctly the Linux PC and I now the communication between the two devices.

    For the record, I don't have the terminating resistor 120 ohm or the anchor line to be included in the cable series between ports OR and Linux.

  • Extract a variable number of bits of byte array

    Hello

    I was working on the decoding of a binary file and one of the tasks is to extract data from a fixed-length U8 array variable bits. The image below is a simple illustration of this particular task.

    Now, before you post you solution, I have already examined 2 methods of forum I searched so far, here is the following excerpt from a simple example of code.

    However, I believe that these 2 methods may not be effective in terms of speed and memory performance.

    I would like to know if there is than other alternatives to solve this problem. If so, share with us.

    I'm here with GerdW.  If you have a set of data block (blocks of 8 or fewer), read like a U64 data and then make a few little shifting and masking with ANDS to recover your data.

    But looking at your two methods, you can not remove it use the table since this is an expensive process.  Instead, use the subset of table and keep track where you are in the table with an another shift register.  Who would avoid some memory allocations and expedite method 2.

  • Strange behaviour of PHP session on IIS server

    Everything worked fine until tonight. PHP has started having a strange behavior with session variables. I use a test server for IIS.

    The session of a form is not deleted, it remains for always in the cache. Even when I restart the computer the session keeps being restored. Now, I have a forum running phpbb on the started testserver and phpbb to store the session variable in the string. I tried, but here's where I'm stuck.

    It has worked well so far and I didn't make any changes to the php.ini file.

    Here's a form part of the ini file to the session regarding:

    [Session]
    ; Manager used to store/retrieve data.
    session.save_handler = files

    ; Argument passed to save_handler.  In the case of files, this is the path
    ; where the data files are stored. Note: Windows users have to change this
    ; variable in order to use PHP's session functions.
    ;
    ; Since PHP 4.0.1 you can set the path as:
    ;
    ;     session.save_path = "N; ' / path '.
    ;
    ; where N is an integer.  Instead of storing all the session files in
    ; / path, what this will do is use subdirectories N-levels deep, and
    ; store session data in these directories.  This is useful if you
    ; or have problems with a lot of files in a directory of your operating system and is
    ; a more efficient layout for servers that handle a lot of sessions.
    ;
    ; NOTE 1: PHP will not automatically create this directory structure.
    ;         You can use the script in the directory ext/session to that end.
    ; NOTE 2: See the section on the garbage collection below if you choose to
    ;         use subdirectories for the session storage
    ;
    ; The file storage module creates files with mode 600 default.
    ; You can change this by using
    ;
    ;     session.save_path = "N; MODE; ' / path '.
    ;
    ; where the MODE is the octal representation of the mode. Note that this
    ; does not overwrite the umask of the process.
    ; session.save_path = "/ tmp".

    ; Define the probability that the process of "garbage collection" is launched

    ; The probability is calculated using gc_probability/gc_divisor,

    ; at each request.

    session.gc_probability = 1
    session.gc_divisor = 1000

    ; After this number of seconds, the stored data will be considered as 'garbage' and
    ; cleaned up by the garbage collection process.
    session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440

    ; NOTE: If you use the subdirectory option to store session files
    ;       (see session.save_path above), then garbage does * not *.
    ;       be done automatically.  You need to do your own waste
    ;       collection using a shell script, input cron or any other method.

    url_rewriter. Tags = 'a href, area = href, frame = src, input is is src, form = fakeentry'

    Can someone tell me please in the right direction?

    Some things to check after I google a bit.

    1. in the ini files, check these settings

    session. Lifetime

    session_gc_maxlifetime

    Also are the permissions correctly on the folder containing the session files.  Perhaps incorrect permissions are disabling php to delete the files.

    Finally,.

    What version of php?  Maybe it's a bug and you need to upgrade php?

  • How to determine the number XP or XP 64-bit operating systems.

    Hello
    I need to download a driver but need to know if I have Windows XP, XP 64. I run Internet 7 SP3 if that makes a difference. Properties-General-he reads the slot system Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3. I think this answers the question that it is not XP 64 but want to make sure and would appreciate any help.

    XP Home does not come as an x 64 version.

    How to determine whether a computer is running a 32-bit version or the 64 bit version of the Windows operating system. http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/827218

    Windows XP if you have Windows XP, there are two ways to determine if you are running 32-bit or a 64-bit version. If one does not work, try the other.

    1. Click Startand then click run.
    2. Type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
    3. Click the general tab. The operating system is displayed as follows:
      • For a 64-bit version operating system: Windows XP Professional x 64 edition Version < year=""> appears under System.
      • For a 32-bit version operating system: Windows XP Professional Version appears under System.

      Note is a placeholder for a year.

    1. Click Startand then click run.
    2. Type winmsd.exe, and then click OK.
    3. When System summary is selected in the navigation pane, search for processor under item in the details pane. Note the value.
      • If the value that corresponds to processor starts with x 86, the computer is running a 32-bit version of Windows.
      • If the value that corresponds to processor starts with ia64 or AMD64, the computer is running a 64-bit version of Windows.

    If you cannot determine the number of bits of the operating system with these methods, go to the "Next steps" section (of the KB article)

    Ask for help on the issue of compatibility with Oracle 11 G R2 32 Bit DB Unicode character.

    Number description: I created a profile in my application and named with Unicode characters(German\Russian\Latvian... alphabets), at the opening of the profile his throw a error message "profile of Bill is not found in the database."

    During the installation of Oracle database, I chose the Unicode UTF-8 characters in data set. According to our guide to applications, it considers that the database characterset and not the character set.

    Thank you

    I don't know what made the request, so I don't know also the role of profile and what is not found - just - in the database. At least 'a profile of Bill' is not a native Oracle object.
    Is it not possible to analyse the problem of enforcement.

    On the database side character set UTF8 (although I prefer the 'new' characterset AL32UTF8) is appropriate in a globalized environment. What to do in the interaction between the application and the database - which depends strongly on the application itself.

  • How do to "BOLD" in the first line of text on a number of sections of text at a time

    CS5 using (but we have CS5

    .5 available) we will create a business directory. Each page has columns of type

    business listings with the company name on top, under this address under this phone, etc.  Each ad is separated

    by a single line. There are thousands of ads, and we need to "BOLD" in the top line of each. How can do us

    without making them individually?

    Each line a paragraph, or each list a paragraph with soft returns (forced line breaks)?

    It's very simple and basic in both cases an operation. It is especially easy if each ad has the same number of lines, so we will focus first with this case.

    Each line should be a separate paragraph. If you have 4 lines, as your example, you might want to mention their name, street, city, and phone. You can and should, all the styles that will be similar in appearance on the same basic model and change only the atrributes that are different, so, for example, if all lines use the same font, many use the same size and weight and only the top line is different and only by being "BOLD" and or larger size start by defining the street, then city and phone based Street and you don't need to define something more than the next Style, I'll get to in a second.

    For topics, set name based as well on the street, but change the font characters. Now all the features of the basic fonts can be changed in one place, the definition of the style Stree.

    Since you have the same number of lines in each list, you can set up a loop "next style". For name, style next street is, the street is the city, for the city it is the phone and is name for the phone. You will also need to toe after the add space in the name, or space on the phone to book spaces registration and you probably also consider to assign everything except phone keep with the next line to prevent a list from breaking across a page or column break. If currently you have blank lines as separators (empty paragraphs), get rid of them. There are change queries find already registered in ID that will do that.

    Once the text is in place and the styles are defined, you can select all, then right click on the style name in the paragraph Styles Panel and choose apply following Style and name. Reformatted your entire list. IT IS CRITICAL in this method that the structure of each list is identical, and if there are no empty lines between the lists.

    If each line is a paragraph, but there is line different counts, you will probably reach with just two styles, one for the headings oand one for everything else, but the beat of following style will not work. If there is something unique that appears in all the headings you can use find/replace to make search and reformat in shape, but I suspect that this will not be the case on in the real world, there will be a manual work involved.

    Where a lisitn is a single paragraph, line break forced (which is better suited to the case of an uneven lines by registration number) you can define a character style nested to be applied by means of a line break forced to make the first line "BOLD", red or any other thing you want.

    At this point, you are probbly, noting that a bit before planningn is a good idea when you do a directory so that your ads have some sort of coherent structure that allows for automation. I have no idea whre that your text is coming from or how it is done in the code. If it can be established as a .csv or a tab-delimited text file, you can use data merge to fill a file based on a model of merge (i.e., how to build directories for my clients who need). You can set styles in the model to each field or paragraph that contains several fields, and merge data will remove empty lines if all row fields are null and there is no punctuation or whitespace on the line.

    A multiple records per page fusion will give you individual blocks of text for each record, and you can, if you wish, thread them using the script text point of Rorohiko.com.
