Integer8
Uniform sequence of signed 8-bit integers.
Binary data format.
Import
can read any file as a sequence of signed 8-bit integers.
Export
writes a list of integers in the range
to a binary file.
IMPORT AND EXPORT
Import
imports an arbitrary file as a sequence of signed 8-bit integers, returning a packed array of integers in the range
.
Export
exports a list of integers in the range
to a sequence of binary 8-bit integers.
Import
or
Import
imports the specified element from
file
.
Import
imports multiple elements.
See the reference pages for full general information on
Import
and
Export
.
ImportString
and
ExportString
support the Integer8 format.
ELEMENTS
General
Import
elements:
"Elements"
elements and options available in this file
"Rules"
full rules for each element and option
"Options"
rules for options, properties, and settings
Data representation element:
"Data"
list of integers in the range
By default,
Import
and
Export
use the
element.
Import
gives the
n
byte.
Trailing bytes are ignored if the size of the imported file is not a multiple of the data size.
OPTIONS
Import
option:
"HeaderBytes"
0
how many bytes to skip at the beginning of the file
