Subject: [PHP] Converting a binary integer to a number
> I have binary data (ie: 0x7b c8 15 0c ) and want to convert it into a
32Bit
> integer (here: 123456789012).
>
> Currently I use this (intel-little-endian):
> $integer = hexdec( bin2hex( strrev( readpos( $fd,$position,4 ) ) ) );
> readpos reads 4 bytes from a file
>
> Is there a better, faster or easier way to do the same thing?
