Last 16 bits

[Drew]

How do I get the "last 16 bits" from a 32 bit integer using C#?

(I guess this means the right most 16 bits?)

BitConverter.GetBytes(int32)

Will return an array of 4 bytes.

Well, if you mean the least significant ones:

int x = y & 0xffff;

 

[Drew]

int x = y & 0xffff;

OK. This seems to do exactly what I need.

Thanks.
