Note Submitter: matt at nexxmedia dot com Reason: 2 ---- A quick one-line bitmask. Great for storing a list of checkbox settings in a MySQL database. This one works for TinyINT (8 bits). Note: I had to make it two lines here so it would fit. $decval = 83; /* decimal to binary, padded with 0s, reversed so the least significant digit is first, split with colons, and then separated into an array */ $binstring = strrev(str_pad(decbin ($decval),8,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT)) $bitarray = explode(":",chunk_split($binstring, 1, ":")); for($x = 0; $x < 8; $x++) { echo $bitarray[$x]." "; } // will output 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0
