<> Lua API Reference

function byteTableToDword(Table, [Signed]) : Number

Converts a table of bytes to a 32-bit dword (integer).

Function Parameters

Parameter Type Description
Table Table A table containing the bytes to convert (least significant byte first).
Signed Boolean (optional) If true, returns a signed 32-bit integer. If false or omitted, returns an unsigned integer.

Returns

Number — The resulting 32-bit dword (integer).

Explanation

The function takes a table of bytes (e.g., {0x78, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12}) and combines them into a single 32-bit value. The first element is the least significant byte (little-endian order). If Signed is true, the result is interpreted as a signed integer.

For example, byteTableToDword({0x78, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12}) returns 0x12345678 (305419896 in decimal).

Examples

local dword = byteTableToDword({0x78, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12})
print(dword) -- Output: 305419896

-- Using signed interpretation
local signedDword = byteTableToDword({0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF}, true)
print(signedDword) -- Output: -1
