    Masking

    I have a piece of equipment that returns a status bit in the form of an ASCII character. I want to logical & this status bit with the number 1 in order to detect a change in the least significant bit.

    I'm not having much success, can anybody help.

    Many thanks

    Code:
    if ( ch & 1 ) {
  // do stuff
}
    Like so?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
