This tutorial describes how to pack 8 bits into a byte using the Pack K Bits block, and how unpack a byte into 8 bits, using the Unpack K Bits block.

The previous tutorial, Converting Data Types, describes how to convert between data types. The next tutorial, Streams and Vectors, describes the differences between streams and vectors and how to use them in flowgraphs.


 * pack and unpack bits
 * describe how it works for char/byte type

The next tutorial, Streams and Vectors, describes the differences between streams and vectors and how to use them in flowgraphs.
