convert a byte to an array of bits

[eggie5]

How can I get the bits that compose a byte?

Say I pass a byte of value 10 to my byteToBitArray function, I would
LIKE to get back an array (8 long) of 00001010.

I want that back cause that's the binary representation of the byte 10.

Any idea how to do this?

Have a look at System.Collections.BitArray class. Maybe this is what you
need.

In what way do you want the "00001010" represented? As a string of
characters? As an array of integers? As an array of booleans? As an
array of bits?

It all depends upon what you want to get out the other end and what you
want to do with it.
