C#: How to parse a hexadecimal digit
- by Biosci3c
Okay, I am working on a card playing program, and I am storing card values as hexadecimal digits. Here is the array:
public int[] originalCards = new int[54]
{
0x11, 0x12, 0x13, 0x14, 0x15, 0x16, 0x17, 0x18, 0x19, 0x1A, 0x1B, 0x1C, 0x1D,
0x21, 0x22, 0x23, 0x24, 0x25, 0x26, 0x27, 0x28, 0x29, 0x2A, 0x2B, 0x2C, 0x2D,
0x31, 0x32, 0x33, 0x34, 0x35, 0x36, 0x37, 0x38, 0x39, 0x3A, 0x3B, 0x3C, 0x3D,
0x41, 0x42, 0x43, 0x44, 0x45, 0x46, 0x47, 0x48, 0x49, 0x4A, 0x4B, 0x4C, 0x4D,
0x50, 0x51
};
The first digit refers to the suit (1 = spades; 2 = clubs; .... 5 = Jokers)
The second digit is the number of the card (1 = ace, 5 = 5; 13 = K, etc).
I would like to do something like the following:
Pseudocode:
public int ReturnCard(int num)
{
int card = currentDeck[num];
int suit = card.firsthexdigit;
int value = card.secondhexdigit;
return 0;
}
I don't need a new method to work on ints, I just included it for clarity's sake.
Anybody know how to do this in C#?
