Converting long string of binary to hex c#
I just knocked this up. Maybe you can use as a starting point...
public static string BinaryStringToHexString(string binary)
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(binary))
return binary;
StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder(binary.Length / 8 + 1);
// TODO: check all 1's or 0's... throw otherwise
int mod4Len = binary.Length % 8;
if (mod4Len != 0)
{
// pad to length multiple of 8
binary = binary.PadLeft(((binary.Length / 8) + 1) * 8, '0');
}
for (int i = 0; i < binary.Length; i += 8)
{
string eightBits = binary.Substring(i, 8);
result.AppendFormat("{0:X2}", Convert.ToByte(eightBits, 2));
}
return result.ToString();
}
This might help you:
string HexConverted(string strBinary)
{
string strHex = Convert.ToInt32(strBinary,2).ToString("X");
return strHex;
}
Convert.ToInt32("1011", 2).ToString("X");
For string longer than this, you can simply break it into multiple bytes:
var binary = "0110011010010111001001110101011100110100001101101000011001010110001101101011";
var hex = string.Join(" ",
Enumerable.Range(0, binary.Length / 8)
.Select(i => Convert.ToByte(binary.Substring(i * 8, 8), 2).ToString("X2")));
