Ruby "pack" functionality in AutoIt

[octus]

Hi, 

 

I'm trying to implement the following functionality available in Ruby: http://apidock.com/ruby/Array/pack

 

More specifically the use of directive "N", for example:

 

a = [45]
puts a.pack('N')

(Checks the result with ruby Interactive online http://tryruby.org/levels/1/challenges/0)

 

Is it possible to do this conversion with Autoit?

 

Thank you

[octus]

Can you give an example please?

Thank you.

$a = 45
StringToBinary(Int($a, 1), 3)

I can't remember to be honest, but pack('N') is 32 bit Big endian right?

I don't know... that returns 0x00340035 though.

Hi Andreu, 

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

Yes the directive "N" meaning  32-bit unsigned, network (big-endian) byte order. I'm trying with your example but I think the result is different from that obtained with Ruby:

 

The output with Ruby is: 000000-    

The output with your AutoIt code:  004005

 

* The 00 is null (ASCII)
