I need to cast a string to a byte array in hex representation. For example: Value: 06000002 What I need is: 30 36 30 30 30 30 30 32  I tried to implicit convert all chars to byte as following: byte[] bytes = new byte[daten.Length]; for (int i = 0; i &lt; daten.Length; i++) {     int value = Convert.ToInt32(daten[i]);          bytes[i] = (byte)daten[i]; }  However I always get this result: 48 54 48 48 48 48 48 50  I do not need the result as string! I need it as byte array! How do achive this?
How can you convert a byte array to a hexadecimal string, and vice versa?
If you make a search for something that returns more than 10,000 items in result. For example, search for  return 161,338 results on MSE. But if you select a page where 10,000+ result should be shown:        In the edge case  shows zero results:        But this is actual for any page where per_page * page_number is more than 10,000.  Though this does not happen for Stack Overflow in English. It looks like all other sites are affected.  Related bug report on ruSO.meta: Is it possible to dual boot two OS's at the same time?

Here's, in order of importance, what would be ideal to find in such a shader:   Must use Cycles Must be an actual shader Must not rely on lighting Must be independent of camera position Must react directly to lighting rather than manually having to change it to emulate it Should be easily made into a node-group Should have the following configurability:   Main color Darkness color Shadow depth (how far the shadow goes from the unlit side)    Below, I'll be listing some already-found methods and their flaws:    Cycles's Toon BDSF:  Source: Blender  Result:    Node setup:    Cons:   Not a clear-cut two-color shading Reacts to diffusion of surrounding objects      Mask &amp; Ramp:  Source:   Result:    Node setup (Compositor):    Cons:   Very grainy Does not support colour textures Not easy to change shadow depth in a nodegroup Not a material, requires compositor Requires use of object indexes     Shadeless Fresnel:  Source:   Result:    Node setup:    Cons:   Uses camera's direction Ignores lighting Not easy to change shadow depth in a nodegroup     Shadeless Normal:  Source:   Result:    Node setup:    Cons:   Ignores lighting Direction of shadow is manually changed Not easy to change shadow depth in a nodegroup   However, this one is easily the best one.

I have to take the inverse Laplace transform of the given function below by residue theorem:   $\frac{1}{s\sinh{c\sqrt{s}}}$   where s is Laplacian variable and c is a real constant. Actually it has a very crowded numerator which I do not need to define. So far I know that it has a simple pole at s = zero and infinitely many poles at c√s = nπi  Questions:  1- What is the order of the poles at nπi? Is it 1/2?  2- At zero, what is the order? (Because to residue at zero, s also contributes)  3- What is the way of solving this question at nπi by residue theorem (without defining sinh function as exponential function)?  Thanks for any help.

GTA V for PC exited unexpectedly I recently ordered the GTA V PC from Steam and when I finished installing and launch the game. It gave me "Grand Theft Auto V has exited unexpectedly". I tried "safe mod" and every option available, but none of them work. I checked some forums and found a lot of people having the same problems. What could be the possible cause? I'm using a laptop with these specs:  CPU: i7 4700m GPU: AMD HD8970M RAM: 8GB  I'm pretty sure my laptop is way beyond the minimum specs. Does someone know how can I enter the game? Sometimes I need to upload, embed, or display inline an image in a question or answer. How can I do that? We have a group of three characters: The lawful good paladin (acolyte), the lawful good fighter (soldier) and the chaotic good druid (criminal). All try to help NPCs in need, won't fight between themselves, but of course have different alignments and personalities. The druid is greedy, but otherwise a good guy. This brought up the question for our group whether greed can be considered a contradiction to having a chaotic good alignment? I understand it as "acting upon what is good, but having your own understanding of 'good'". But I am not sure if the PC being is played 'wrong'.   How do you determine if a given action is in line with a PC's alignment? And should the GM intervene if a PC is played differently that his/her alignment indicates?  Example: There is a Chaotic Good druid with a criminal background. The druid attacked caravans who destroyed his homeland, which he was protecting as his druidic duty, to make way for faster trade routes. Thus he made a name of himself and soon had quite a pile of goods in his territory. The thieves guild caught wind of that and made a deal with him to smuggle wares through his territory as long as they won't hurt the wildlife. So far, seems like a reasonable match between criminal and CG.  Upon opening a chest in a dungeon the druid found a magic chainmail and a bag filled with 420gp. As he was the only one next to the chest, he turned around and told his two comrades there were 360gp in the chest, keeping an extra 60gp to himself without them knowing. Later after finishing a task for the mayor the druid and the paladin persuaded him to give them 550 instead of 500gp, while the fighter was drunk outside. The druid told the paladin to keep his share of those 10% extra, as a gift for always being successful on those charismatic tasks. This was done to check out the personality of the paladin. He accepted without a second of doubt and didn't even contradict when the druid told him not to tell the fighter anything about the extra.   I am now confused about whether this is just unlawful or also not good, and if so what should I as DM do about it? Using File Geodatabase coded domain with ArcGIS Online? I created a File GDB and set up a domain, and the domain was assigned to a field in a feature class. The domain behaves as expected on ArcGIS Desktop (dropdown list when editing the content of that field).  But if I zip up the FGDB and upload to ArcGIS Online to created a feature layer and edit the layer online, there is no dropdown when editing.  I don't see any additional step in this tutorial, other than a different mechanism of getting data to ArcGIS Online. I don't think I can do it the same way in ArcGIS 10.0:   Anyone has any idea what's going on? What is wrong with the following "proof" that $e=1$? Let's analyze this expression   $\lim_\limits{n\rightarrow\infty} (1+\frac{1}{n})^n$  It's the definition of $e$ which, as we know is not equal to $1$. So what is wrong with the following "logic":  As $\lim_\limits{n\rightarrow\infty}(a_{n}b_{n}) = \lim_\limits{n\rightarrow\infty}(a_{n})\times\lim_\limits{n\rightarrow\infty}(b_{n}) $ and $\lim_\limits{n\rightarrow\infty}(1+\frac{1}{n}) = 1$, we can say that $\lim_\limits{n\rightarrow\infty} (1+\frac{1}{n})^n=1^n$, which is equal to $1$.  I know something's wrong there, but the question is - what? Reopened questions get a "modified" time stamp in the questions list just showed up on 's front page like this:    ... which makes no sense, because the question hasn't been modified since May 25th, and the person who edited it wasn't CatLord anyway:    Turns out what actually happened was that CatLord cast a fifth reopen vote to reopen the question.    So that stamp in the questions list should probably say this instead:     reopened 4m ago CatLord 10.7k   Or just:     reopened 4m ago I have a chain object. And i have a curve it follows. I got it to work for following curve, but chain object is not circles but both parts are more like stretched circles (ovals). Object i made with 2 toruses one rotated 90 degrees and then joined them together. I tried single torus too. But same issue. on a curve it just looks stretched oval. What can be the issue?   Thanks I am replacing a door with a pre-hung door including the jamb. The old door was 29 11/16" wide. The new pre-hung door is 28".  Is this too big of a gap?  Should I make it plumb on one side and make up the difference on the other side? Other threads suggest making up space on the handle side, but this is more space than than what other people were asking about. The trim is 2 1/2" so the gap would be covered. 1.35 V RAM in a 1.5 V system - Will it fry or overclock? The general question is: When installing low voltage RAM in a board that outputs a higher voltage to the memory module, will this fry the RAM or will it be like overclocking it?  My specific case is: I have the Alienware m17xR3 laptop with a 2630QM Sandy Bridge board. Currently, I have the stock 1.5 V modules and when I check the overclocking options in my bios, the RAM voltage option ranges from 1.5 - 1.65 V. Is this simply because the bios recognizes that these are the values which my current RAM support and thus they will change when I install 1.35 V RAM or will I have to run the 1.35 V sticks at minimum 1.5 V?  If the case is the latter, would I fry my 1.35 V sticks? Or would they become automatically overclocked and get tighter timings with a higher voltage? Or both? Or neither? I'm a bit lost :p Convergence to function that is not measurable Suppose ($X,\cal M, \mu$) is not complete.
