    Please Help

    Hey Guys can someone please help

    Ive been trying to convert the first 4 bytes of a BYTE (unsigned char) buffer to a dword. i have tried many different methods and have got them all working on standard Buffers. But as soon as i use a buffer on the freestore it doesn't convert the first 4 bytes of the buffer to the DWORD probably and i got some odd numbers.

    Did you cast the array to a DWORD pointer? That should do it.

    char* c=new char[10];
    cout << *(DWORD*)c;
    Use

    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
