Issues about byte array in megabytes

Asked By carol troester 50 points N/A Posted on - 09/07/2012

Array is most known in the world of java, and it is where I first encounter the word array. Now what is there a way we can convert a byte array in to megabytes? If it is possible how and what are the tools needed for the development and conversion flow. Please suggest about this.

Thank you

Issues about byte array in megabytes

You haven’t understood what a byte array is and what the use of it is.

A byte is basically a number from 0 to 255 (the numbers that can be represented in 8 bits). So a byte array is just an array of numbers 0 to 255.

At a lower level, An array is a contiguous block of memory and a byte array is just a representation of that memory in 8-bit chunks.

byte[] bytearray = new byte[] { 0, 1, 2, 3, 254, 255 };

We can use a byte array to store an image on a database. First we convert the image in to a stream of bytes and pass it to the database field created as a byte field. Later we can convert back the byte stream in to a viewable image.

So there is no such thing as converting byte array in to megabytes.
